A door 1.00 m wide and 2.00 m high weighs 330 N and is supported by two hinges, one 0.50 m from the top and the other 0.50 m from the bottom. Each hinge supports half the total weight of the door. Assuming that the door’s center of gravity is at its center, find the horizontal components of force exerted on the door by each hinge.
A uniform beam is 4.38 m long and has a mass of 69.1 kg. In the figure, the beam is supported in a horizontal position by a hinge and a cable, with angle θ = 60.2°.
(a) What is the x-component of the force on the beam from the hinge?
(b) What is the y-component of the force on the beam from the hinge?
A beam is attached to a vertical wall with a hinge. The mass of the beam is 1000 kg, and it is 4 m long. A steel support wire is tied from the end of the beam to the wall, making an angle of 30° with the beam. (a) By summing the torque about the axis passing through the hinge, calculate the tension in the support wire. Assume the beam is uniform so that the weight acts at its exact center. (b) What is the minimum cross-sectional area of the steel wire so that it is not permanently stretched? The yield strength (elastic limit) for steel is 290 × 106N/m2, and the ultimate breaking strength is 400×106N/m2.

In this position, half her weight is supported by the normal force exerted by the floor on the toes of each foot as shown in Figure P14.75A.

- A uniform beam resting on two pivots has a length L = 6.00 m and mass M = 90.0 kg. The pivot under the left end exerts a normal force n1 on the beam, and the second pivot located a distance = 4.00 m from the left end exerts a normal force n2.

Its bottom end is on solid but sloping ground so that the top of the ladder is 0.690 m to the left of where it should be, and the ladder is unsafe to climb.
