(For problems 5 and 6) Two people of masses m¡ (on the left) and m2 (on the right) are balanced on an unmoving see-saw as shown in the picture to the right. The plank they sit on has a mass of M and has its center at the hinge in the middle. The plank is tilted by 20° away from horizontal. The person on the left is r¡ away from the hinge, the person on the right is r2 away from the hinge. 5) For the see-saw, if the hinge exerts F,, draw a Free Body Diagram for the plank.

Written or Image solution please, thank you! A uniform beam of mass 14.0 kg and length 1.00 m is suspended by a rope attached at a distance x = 17.0 cm from the right end of the beam as shown. The cable makes an angle ? = 29.0° with the beam. The other end of the beam is attached to a wall by a frictionless hinge. An object of mass m = 1.70 kg sits on the beam at a distance of 18.0 cm from the hinge. (a) Find the magnitude of the tension in the rope. (N) (b) Find the magnitude of the horizontal component of the force of the hinge on the beam. (N) (c) Find the magnitude of the vertical component of the force of the hinge on the beam. (N)
A horizontal 4.0 m long 5.0 N uniform bar at one end is attached to a wall by a frictionless hinge; and at the middle of the bar there is a vertical cable pulling down 7.0 N, and at the middle of the bar there is also a cable that is at 45 ° to the horizontal pulling up as shown. ii) What is the magnitude of the horizontal component of the force on the bar due to the hinge?
Consider the situation in Problem 25. Tests have shown that when people try to eyeball the proper angle for the ladder, theyare often off by as much as 9. Suppose the painter sets up theladder at too small an angle. a. At what maximum angle would rubber ladder tips on dryconcrete be unsafe? b. How likely is it for a person to make such a dangerousmistake?
Rank the pictured torques on a solid beam from most negative to most positive. The black dot in the beam is a fixed pivot axis which is located at the very end of the beam (notice that c, e, and f have different pivots!). You may assume that forces are either applied at the end or the center of the beam. Angles that appear to be 90 degrees, are 90 degrees. If torques are equal in magnitude, please indicate this. If any of the torques are zero, please indicate this.
