A block is suspended at the end of a beam held up by a cable as shown. The block has mass M = 15.2 kg. The length of the beam is L = 4.7 m. The mass of the beam is mb = 9.9 kg. The angle between the cable and the wall is θ = 37.5°. (a) Find the tension, in N, in the cable that holds up the beam. (b) Find the magnitude of the force, in N, of the wall on the beam. (c) Find the direction, in degrees from the positive x axis, of the force of the wall on the beam.
