A horizontal beam of length 4.08m and weight 130N is attached to a vertical wall at a right angle. There is also a support wire of length 5.04m which attaches the far end of the beam to the wall from above. Off of the far end of the beam also hangs an object of weight 330 N. (a) What is the magnitude of the tension in the support wire? (b) What is the horizontal component of the force exerted on the beam at the wall? (c) What is the vertical component of the force exerted on the beam at the wall?
Rotational Equilibrium And Rotational Dynamics
In physics, the state of balance between the forces and the dynamics of motion is called the equilibrium state. The balance between various forces acting on a system in a rotational motion is called rotational equilibrium or rotational dynamics.
Equilibrium of Forces
The tension created on one body during push or pull is known as force.
