5. Two identical, uniform beams of length 3 m and weighing 260 N each are connected at one end by a frictionless hinge. A light horizontal crossbar, attached at the midpoints of the beams maintains an angle 50° between the beams. The beams are suspended from the ceiling by vertical wires so they form a V. See figure. (a) What force does the crossbar exert on each beam? (b) Is the crossbar under compression or tension, i.e. are the ends of the crossbar being pushed together or stretched farther apart? (c) What force (magnitude and direction) does the hinge exert on each beam? Crossbar Hinge

A uniform drawbridge must be held at a 38o angle above the horizontal to allow ships to pass underneath. The drawbridge weights 55000 N and is 15.0 m long. A cable is connected 3.5 m from the hinge where the bridge pivots (measured along the bridge) and pulls horizontally on the bridge to hold it in place. What is the tension in the cable? Find the magnitude and direction of the force the hinge exerts on the bridge. If the cable suddenly breaks, what is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the drawbridge just after the cable breaks? What is the angular speed of the drawbridge as it becomes horizontal? What is the velocity of the drawbridge, just before it “hits” (i.e. goes horizontal)?
