1. The figure shows a horizontal steel beam with mass M = 500 kg and length L = 2.0 m held against a vertical wall by a taut cable with 0 = 60°. A ball with mass m = 200 kg is attached via a short cable at a distance x 1.5 m from the wall. = a. Draw an extended force diagram for the steel beam, drawing the direction of the forces and the location of the forces acting on the beam. Ꮎ X m b. Using the contact point between the wall and the beam as your pivot point for torque calculations, balance the torques created by all the forces acting on the beam to determine the magnitude of the tension force that the cable exerts on the beam. C. Balance the forces in the x- and y-directions to determine the x- and y-components of the force that the wall exerts on the beam.
You set up a Halloween prank by attaching a small board to a hinge above your front door. The far end of the board is held up by a cable that can be released by remote control. You place a spooky spider on the board that is dropped on unsuspecting trick-or-treaters when you release the cable. The drawing below shows the set-up. cable 40° Hinge 60 ст You use a board that is 60 cm long and the cable makes an angle of 40 degrees with the board when the board is held horizontally. You place the spider a distance of r = 37 cm from the hinge. The board has a mass of 2.2 kg and the spider has a mass of 1.6 kg. The hinge applies both a horizontal force and a vertical force. You will be asked to determine the direction of both of these forces (left, right, up, down). What is the magnitude of the tension in the cable in Newtons? T = What is the magnitude and direction of the horizontal force from the hinge? Enter a positive number for the magnitude. Fh = Direction ---Select--- What is the…
