A crane boom which weighs 200 lbs and which is 10 feet long is supported so that it makes an angle of 50° with the supporting wall and so that the rope makes an angle of 70° with the wall. If a load of 100 lbs is hung on the end of the boom, what tension occurs in the rope and what thrust does the support exert on the lower end of the boom? Ps.

Types of loading

In mechanical terminology, the term load indicates that external force/weight, either constant or variable, acts on a mechanical member/structure. The weight of an object of a specific material is also an external load, and the external force that works on a structure comes under the categories of loading. The external load generates its effects as stress and strain in the structure.
