2. A scaffold of mass 60 kg and length 5.0 m is supported in a horizontal position by a vertical cable at each end. A window washer of mass 80 kg stands at a point 1.5 m from one end. What is the tension in (a) the nearer cable and (b) the farther cable?
A hungry bear weighing 85.0 kg walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of food hanging at the end of the beam. The beam is uniform, has a mass of 20.0 kg, is 8.00 m long, and pivoted at the wall; the basket weighs 10.0 kg. If the wire can withstand a maximum tension of 900 N, what is the maximum distance that the bear can walk before the wire breaks? ←x 60.0⁰ Goodies
Two children of mass 21 kg and 26 kg sit balanced on a seesaw with the pivot point located at the center of the seesaw. If the children are separated by a distance of 2 m, at what distance from the pivot point is the small child sitting in order to maintain the balance? m
How do you do this? A hungry bear weighing 700 N walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of goodies hanging at the end of the beam (see figure below). The beam is uniform, weighs 200 N, and is 6.00 m long, and it is supported by a wire at an angle of ? = 60.0°. The basket weighs 80.0 N. a) When the bear is at x = 1.00 m, find the tension (in N) in the wire supporting the beam and the components of the force exerted by the wall on the left end of the beam. b) If the wire can withstand a maximum tension of 875 N, what is the maximum distance (in m) the bear can 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.
A 9 m long board that has a mass of 14. Each end is held up by a vertical rope. A 45 kg box sits 1 m from the left end. Find the tension in the rope on the right. Hint: With forces applied at different places, this is a beam problem pick a pivot point measure all distances from the pivot point Apply Στ = 0 Don't forget torque = force x dist, so you need to multiply the masses by g = 9.8 m/s2 If you need more information, apply ΣF = 0
