In the figure, suppose the length L of the uniform bar is 3.0 m and its weight is 190 N. Also, let the block's weight W = 280 N and the angle 0 = 31°. The wire can withstand a maximum tension of 450 N. (a) What is the maximum possible distance x before the wire %3D breaks? With the block placed at this maximum x, what are the (b) horizontal and (c) vertical components of the force on the bar from the hinge at A? C com A
