---**Physics Problem: Horizontal Steel Beam with Attached Mass****Problem Statement:**1. The figure shows a horizontal steel beam with mass \(M = 500 \text{ kg}\) and length \(L = 2.0 \text{ m}\) held against a vertical wall by a taut cable with \(\theta = 60^\circ\). A ball with mass \(m = 200 \text{ kg}\) is attached via a short cable at a distance \(x = 1.5 \text{ m}\) from the wall. ![Diagram](link-to-image) *(The figure depicts a horizontal beam labeled with \(L\) and \(x\) as described. The vertical wall and the angle \(\theta\) made by the cable are also indicated.)* a. **Draw an extended force diagram for the steel beam**, indicating the direction of the forces and the location of the forces acting on the beam. 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.---**Explanation of Diagram:**The accompanying diagram illustrates the forces acting on a horizontal beam fixed to a wall. Key features include:- The horizontal beam is held to the wall on the left side, with the right side supported by a cable at an angle \(\theta = 60^\circ\).- The beam’s length \(L = 2.0 \text{ m}\).- A mass \(m = 200 \text{ kg}\) is attached 1.5 meters from the wall.- Key distances \(x\) and angles \(\theta\) are labeled clearly.This setup will be used to analyze the forces and torques exerted on the beam.---

You are working in an ice skating rink and have been asked to hang a new banner on the wall. Your friend is helping you so that the ladder does not collapse by exerting a force F_AL at an angle ϕ relative to the horizontal. The ladder has a length L and makes an angle of θ with respect to the vertical wall. You have a mass, m_Y, and are a horizontal distance x from the wall. The ladder has a mass of m_L. Because the wall is slick, and the ice on the floor is slick, the frictional forces acting on the ladder are negligible. Find a formula for the magnitude of the force that your friend must exert to keep the ladder from falling, in terms of the following variables: x,L,m_Y,m_L,θ,ϕ. Then use the following values to get a number for the magnitude of F_AL. θ = 30.3 degrees ϕ = 23.028 degrees x = 1.491 meters L = 7.1 meters m_Y = 86.0 kg m_L = 42.14 kg Find the magnitudes of: F_AL, normal force of the wall on the ladder (N_WL), and normal force of the floor on the ladder (N_FL).
