Question

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
(Fig. P8.28). The beam is uniform,
weighs 200. N, and is 6.00 m long,
and it is supported by a wire at
an angle of θ = 60.0°. The basket
weighs 80.0 N. (a) Draw a force
diagram for the beam. (b) When
the bear is at x = 1.00 m, find the
tension in the wire supporting the
beam and the components of
the force exerted by the wall on the left end of the beam. (c) If
the wire can withstand a maximum tension of 900. N, what is the
maximum distance the bear can walk before the wire breaks?
