To prevent the traveling crane as shown in the fig. from tipping to the right when carrying a
load P, a counterweight Q is used. Determine value and position of Q so that the crane will
remain in equilibrium both when the maximum load P is applied and when the load P is
removed. *

One end of a uniform 4.0-m-long rod of weight of 700 Nis supported by a cable at an angle of q = 35° with therod. The other end of the rod connects to a hinge mountedon the wall at point A. The cable can withstand amaximum tension of 2200 N. Determine the maximumdistance x from point A at which an additional weight of1200 N can be hung without causing the cable to snap.
