A stepladder of negligible weight is constructed as shown in Figure P10.73, with AC = BC = = 4.00 m. A painter of mass m = 70.0 kg stands on the ladder d = 3.00 m from the bottom. Assuming the floor is frictionless, find (a) the tension in the horizontal bar DE connecting the two halves of the ladder, (b) the normal forces at A and B, and (c) the components of the reaction force at the single hinge C that the left half of the ladder exerts on the right half. Suggestion: Treat the ladder as a single object, but also treat each half of the ladder separately.

The system in the Figure is in equilibrium. A mass M1 = 203.0 kg hangs from the end of a uniform strut which is held at an angle theta = 47.0o with respect to the horizontal.

Two uniform planks, each of mass m = 7.45 kg and length L = 2.51 m, are connected by a hinge at the top and by a chain of negligible mass attached at their centers, as shown in the figure. The assembly will stand upright, in the shape of an A, on a frictionless surface without collapsing. If the chain has the length 0.81 m, find each of the following: a) the absolute value of the tension in the chain, b) the absolute magnitude of the force on the hinge of each p lank
A uniform horizontal beam 5.00 m long and weighting 3.03 102 N is attached to a wall by a pin connection that allows the beam to rotate. Its far end is supported by a cable that makes an angle of 53.0° with the horizontal (Figure (a)). If a person weighing 6.05 102 N stands 1.60 m from the wall, find the magnitude of the tension in the cable and the force exerted by the wall on the beam. T = N Rx = N Ry = N Even if we selected some other axis for the torque equation, the solution would be the same. For example, if the axis were to pass through the center of gravity of the beam, the torque equation would involve both T and Ry. Together with Equations (1) and (2), however, the unknowns could still be found—a good exercise. In this example, notice the steps of the Problem-Solving Strategy could be carried out in the explicit recommended order.QUESTION What happens to the tension in the cable if the man in Figure (a) moves farther away from the wall?
