A slender bar of length L = 400 mm is held in equilibrium, with one end touching a frictionless wall and the other end attached to a wire of length S = 600 mm as illustrated. Knowing that the weight of the bar is 147 N (which acts at the mid-length of the bar), determine: a. the distance h. b. the tension in the wire. c. the reaction at B. В
