A 3 meter uniform rod with a weight of 1000 N is suspended by two vertical cables and has a large box (1750 N in weight) tied to the right hand side. One cable is exactly on the left most end of rod with a tension of 2000 N. The second cable is 1 m to the right of the center of mass and has an unknown tension. What angle does the rod make with the force of the hanging box? You must draw a diagram

A meter stick is suspended by two vertical cables and is parrallel to the ground. Cable 1 has a tension of 332N and is attached at the 9.00cm mark on the meter stick. A 60.0 Kg block hanging vertically from the meter stick at the 54.0cm mark is in static equillibrium, ignore the mass of the meter stick. A. What is the tension on cable 2? B. At what point on the meter stick is cable two attached?

A 560-N uniform rectangular sign 4.00 m wide and 3.00 m high is suspended from a horizontal, 6.00-m-long, uniform, 120-N rod as indicated in the figure below. The left end of the rod is supported by a hinge and the right end is supported by a thin cable making a 30.0° angle with the vertical. (Assume the cable is connected to the very end of the 6.00-m-long rod, and that there are 2.00 m separating the wall from the sign.)...

In the figure, a uniform beam of weight 470 N and length 3.6 m is suspended horizontally. On the left it is hinged to a wall; on the right it is supported by a cable bolted to the wall at distance D above the beam. The least tension that will snap the cable is 1400 N. What value of D corresponds to that tension?

In the figure, a uniform beam with a weight of 56.9 N and a length of 3.75 m is hinged at its lower end, and a horizontal force  of magnitude 58.2 N acts at its upper end. The beam is held vertical by a cable that makes angle θ = 20.8° with the ground and is attached to the beam at height h = 2.04 m. What are (a) the tension in the cable, (b) the x-component of the force on...

A uniform, 245-N rod that is 2.10 m long carries a 225-N weight at its right end and an unknown weight W toward the left end (see the figure (Figure 1)). When W is placed 46.0 cm from the left end of the rod, the system just balances horizontally when the fulcrum is located 69.2 cm from the right end. W= 71.7 N If W is now moved 28.1 cm to the right, how far must the fulcrum be moved...

1. Equilibrium Lab Example. A meter stick with unknown mass is suspended by two strings of length 60 cm, so that it forms an equilateral triangle, 30 cm from the center on each side as shown. Three masses, mass 1= 200g, mass 2= 400 g, and a third unknown mass are hung at 3 different positions as shown (mass 1 at 50 cm meter stick position, mass 2 at the 20 cm position, and mass 3 at the 90 cm...

A 1,100–N uniform boom at ϕ = 65.5° to the horizontal is supported by a cable at an angle θ = 24.5° to the horizontal as shown in the figure below. The boom is pivoted at the bottom, and an object of weight w = 2,150 N hangs from its top. (a) Find the tension in the support cable. (b) Find the horizontal & vertical components of the reaction force exerted by the pivot on the boom. (Assume the positive...
