:)A 1200 N uniform boom at o = 65.0 degrees to the horizontal is
supported by a cable at an angle 0 = 25.0 degrees to the horizontal. The
boom is pivoted at the bottom, and an object of weight m = 2.00E3 N
hangs from its top. Find (a) the tension in the support cable and (b) the
components of the force exerted by the floor on the boom (through the
hinge).

- Problem 4.30 While the stiffness of an elastic cord can be quite constant (i.e., the force versus displace- ment curve is a straight line) over a large range of stretch, as a bungee cord is stretched, it softens; that is, the cord tends to get less stiff as it gets longer. Assuming a soften- ing force-displacement relation of the form k8 - B83, where 8 (measured in ft) is the displacement of the cord from its unstretched length, considering a bungee cord whose unstretched length is 150 ft, and letting k = 2.58 lb/ft, determine the value of the con- stant B such that a bungee jumper weighing 170 lb and starting from rest gets to the bottom of a 400 ft tower with zero speed.arrow_forwardShown below is a leg in a cast and supported by two cables.
