MC hinge 900 km. cable
The beam in the figure below is perpendicular to the wall and supported at the wall by a hinge at point A. The beam is also supported by a cable with an attachement point on the beam at distance "m" from the wall. The cable is attached to the wall at a distance "l" above point A. The beam is subject to an applied load "W" at point B as well as the beam's own weight "Wb" which acts at the mid-point between points A and B. The beam is also subject to an applied moment Mc with direction as shown on the figure.
length AB = 20 meters, length m = 4 meters, length l = 10 meters; weight W = 100 Newtons, weight Wb = 10 Newtons; applied moment Mc = 200 Newton*meters
What is the magnitude and direction of the horizontal support force of the hinge on the beam?
