Attached to one end of a vertical wall is a 1120N uniform beam that is held up by a cable at the other end. At the far end of the beam hangs a 1960N crate. Using the attached image, please answer the following questions:

Why is the direction of F_v facing up instead of down?
In order to find the value of F_T,where should the pivot point be placed in the image below?
Since we don't have the length of the beam, we know that is a uniform beam. If the length of the beam is L, what's the distance from the pivot to where the 1220N weight is hanging? and the length to where F_T and the 1960N weight is?
In order to find torques, What is the angle between F_T and the beam? What is the angle between the weights and the beam?
Find the tension force.
Since you now know the tension force, find the forces F_Vand F_H using Newton's 2nd law.
