As shown below, a beam of length L is in equilibrium and is attached to a cable which is pulling it against a frictionless wall. The beam is not attached to the wall and the wall is only exerting a normal force on the beam. Additionally, there is a 792 N box hanging on a wire from the end of the beam. Determine the cable tension & the beam weight. 0.86 L 45° 792 N tension= beam weight=
In the figure below, a uniform beam of weight 420 N and length 2.8 m is suspended horizontally.

Problem 5: Fr Fm Bone -Muscle 100 30 cm W 4 cm 40 cm A simplified model of a human arm holding a weight is shown on the right. The length of the forearm is 40 cm and it has a mass of 1.7 kg. The bicep muscle is attached 4 cm in from the elbow joint and makes an angle of 73° with the forearm. The weight in the person's hand has a mass of 5 kg. a) What is the magnitude of the force provided by the bicep muscle needed to keep their arm at rest? b) What is the magnitude and direction of the force acting at the elbow (F;) in that same case?
The forearm shown below is positioned at an angle with respect to the upper arm, and a 5.6 kg mass is held in the hand. The total mass of the forearm and hand is 2.1 kg, and their center of mass is 16.1 cm from the elbow. (Assume the biceps muscle exerts a force on the forearm that acts vertically.) 5.6 kg B 37.5 cm 4.0 cm (a) What is the magnitude of the force (in N) that the biceps muscle exerts on the forearm for 0-60%7 N (b) What is the magnitude of the force on the elbow joint (in N) for the same angle? N (c) How do these forces depend on the angle 07 The force that the biceps muscle exerts increases and the force on the elbow joint decreases as increases. They both decrease as @ increases. They both increase as increases. They do not depend on 0. The force that the biceps muscle exerts decreases and the force on the elbow joint increases as increases.
