Question
. Sir Lost-a-Lot dons his armor and sets out from the
castle on his trusty steed (Fig. P12.19). Usually, the
drawbridge is lowered to a horizontal position so that
the end of the bridge rests on the stone ledge. Unfor-
tunately, Lost-a-Lot's squire didn't lower the draw-
bridge far enough and stopped it at 0 = 20.0° above
the horizontal. The knight and his horse stop when
their combined center of mass is d = 1.00 m from the
end of the bridge. The uniform bridge is € = 8.00 m
long and has mass 2 000 kg. The lift cable is attached
to the bridge 5.00 m from the hinge at the castle end
and to a point on the castle wall h = 12.0 m above the
bridge. Lost-a-Lot's mass combined with his armor
and steed is 1 000 kg. Determine
the horizontal
components acting on the bridge at the hinge.
