A bar of uniform cross section is 28.1 in long and weighs 61.2 lb. A weight of 67.3 lb is suspended from one end. The bar and
weight combination is to be suspended from a cable attached at the balance
point. How far (in) from the weight should the cable be attached, and what is the tension (lb) in the cable?

You are a summer intern for an architectural firm. An
8.00-m-long uniform steel rod is to be attached to a wall by a
frictionless hinge at one end. The rod is to be held at 24.0 ∘
below the horizontal by a light cable that is attached to the end
of the rod opposite the hinge. The cable makes an angle of 38.0 ∘
with the rod and is attached to the wall at a point...

9. An 8.0m long uniform boom weighing 2400N is anchored to the
ground at one end and sticks up at a 45°angle toward the right. It
is held in this position by a cable rising at 30°above horizontal
and extending toward the left from the top of the boom. If a 1000N
weight hangs from the top of this boom what is the tension in each
cable. You must draw the free body diagram to receive full

(1 point) A trough is 6 feet long and 1 foot high. The vertical
cross-section of the trough parallel to an end is shaped like the
graph of ?=?6y=x6 from ?=−1x=−1 to ?=1x=1 . The trough is full of
water. Find the amount of work in foot-pounds required to empty the
trough by pumping the water over the top. Note: The weight of water
is 6262 pounds per cubic foot.
