A rigid vertical rod of mass 75 kg and length 4.0 m is connected to the floor by a bolt through its lower end A. The rod also has a wire connected between its top end B and the floor as shown in the figure. A horizontal force F = 500 N is applied at the midpoint of the rod. What is the tension in the wire?
A fisherman has caught a fish on his pole, and to keep the pole steady he has to apply an upward force of F2 = 215 N at an angle of 55.5° with respect to the pole (see figure). The length of his pole is 3.1 m, and he is holding it a distance 0.25 m from the end, where he is applying a downward force F1. F2 = 215 Nθ = 55.5°L = 3.1 md = 0.25 m a) With how much force, F1, in newtons, does he have to push straight downward on the end of his pole to keep the pole from moving? You may assume the pole is massless. b)What is the mass of the fish on the end of the pole, in kilograms?

Why is the following situation impossible? A uniform beam of mass mk = 3.00 kg and length = 1.00 m supports blocks with masses m1 = 5.00 kg and m2 = 15.0 kg at two positions as shown in Figure P12.2. The beam rests on two triangular blocks, with point P a distance d = 0.300 m to the right of the center of gravity of the beam. The position of the object of mass m2 is adjusted along the length of the beam until the normal force on the beam at O is zero. Figure P12.2

A horizontal, rigid bar of negligible weight is fixed against a vertical wall at one end and supported by a vertical string at the other end. The bar has a length of 50.0 cm and is used to support a hanging block of weight 400.0 N from a point 30.0 cm from the wall as shown in Figure P14.81. The string is made from a material with a tensile strength of 1.2 108 N/m2. Determine the largest diameter of the string for which it would still break. FIGURE P14.81
