B 60° Figure 3 L A 5. A beam AB of length 10m and negligible mass leans against a wall at an angle of 60° to the horizontal. It is held at B by a string as shown. There is no friction at either of the ends A or B. A koala of mass M = 10 kg climbs up the beam from B. If the breaking tension of the string is 40 N, find the distance reached by the koala just before the string cannot support any more weight and breaks.
The block shown in (Figure 1) has a mass of m = 75 kg, a height H = 1.1 m, and width L = 1.6 m. It is resting on a ramp that makes an angle 0 = 34° with the horizontal. A force P is applied parallel to the surface of the ramp at the top of the block. What is the maximum force that can be applied without causing the block to move? The coefficient of static friction is μs = 0.42, and the center of mass of the block is at the center of the rectangle.
