A uniform bar with a length of 6.88 meters and a mass of 29 kg is attached to a building by an axis at its left end. A box of mass 38.4 kg sits on the bar at a distance of 2.4 m from the left end. The right end of the bar is supported by a cable with a 477.81 N of tension that is also attached to the building. The angle between the cable and the bar is 34.9°. Determine the Fv, the vertical force on the bar by the wall (in N).
A worker of weight 772.7 kg stands on the end of a beam of weight 1693 N and length L= 119.7 m, supported on a pivot. The beam's center of mass is at its center. W is the weight of a counterweight needed to hold the beam in equilibrium. Determine the counterweight W (in N) if the distance between the counterweight and the fulcrum is x= 27.5 m. Answer:

A uniform beam has a length of 15.2 m and a mass of 37.3 kg. The beam is horizontal and resting (in equilibrium) on two supports. One of the supports is located 4.09m to the right of the beam's center of mass. The second support is located 1.96 m to the left of the beam's center of mass. How much upward force is exerted on the beam by the first support?
In the figure, one end of a uniform beam of weight 280 N is hinged to a wall; the other end is supported by a wire that makes angles θ = 28° with both wall and beam. Find (a) the tension in the wire and the (b) horizontal and (c) vertical components of the force of the hinge on the beam.
A beam with length of 2 m and a mass of 10 kg supports a 50 kg box. The beam is connected to a wall by a hinge at its base and a horizontal wire. The wire is connected to the beam 1.5 m from the hinge and makes an angle θ of 35o to the beam. The goal is to find the tension in the wire and the horizontal and vertical components of the force exerted by the hinge on the board. Suppose the maximum tension that the wire can withstand is 1500 N. What is the maximum load that the hinge can support before the wire breaks?

A 45.1 kg man is walking on a 147 kg uniform beam that is attached 19.0 m below the top of a building and is 21.2 m long. If a wire is attached to both the top of the building and end of the beam, and is able to handle 1.52E3 N of tension, how close to the end can the man walk before the wire breaks?
A homeowner is trying to move a stubborn rock from his yard. By using a a metal rod as a lever arm and a fulcrum (or pivot point) the homeowner will have a better chance of moving the rock. The homeowner places the fulcrum a distance ?=0.288 mfrom the rock, which has a mass of 465 kg, and fits one end of the rod under the rock's center of weight. If the homeowner can apply a maximum force of 671 N at the other end of the rod, what is the minimum total length ? of the rod required to move the rock? Assume that the rod is massless and nearly horizontal so that the weight of the rock and homeowner's force are both essentially vertical. The acceleration due to gravity is ?=9.81 m/s2.
