A uniform horizontal strut weighs 400.0 N. One end of the strut is attached to a hinged support the wall and the other end of the strut is attached to a sign that weighs 200.0 N The strut is also supported by a cable attached between the end of the strut and the wall. Assuming that the entire weight of the sign is attached at the very end of the s find the tension in the cable and the force at the hinge of the strut.

The keystone of an arch is the stone at the top (Fig. P14.9). It is supported by forces from its two neighbors, blocks A and B. Each block has mass m and approximate length L. What can you conclude about the force exerted by each block, FA and FB, for the keystone to remain in static equilibrium? That is, show that the equilibrium conditions are satisfied by the components of the forces FAx, FAy, FBx, and FBy. Assume the arch is symmetric. FIGURE P14.9
