Chapter 9, Problem 27P
A uniform rod AB of length 5.0 m and mass M=3.S kg is hinged at A and held in equilibrium by a light cord, as shown in Fig. 9-57.A load W=22N hangs from the rod at a distance d so that the tension in the cord is 85 N. (a) Draw a free-body diagram for the rod. (b) Determine the vertical and horizontal forces on the rod exerted by the hinge, (c) Determine d from the appropriate torque equation.

The beam remainsvertical because of a cable attached at the upper end, at angle uwith the horizontal. gives the tension T in the cableas a function of the position of the applied force given as a fractiony/L of the beam length.The scale of the T axis is set by Ts= 600 N.Figure 12-49c gives the magnitude Fh of the horizontal force on thebeam from the hinge, also as a function of y/L. Evaluate (a) angle uand (b) the magnitude of .
Two men are carrying a ladder of length l by supporting it at its ends. The ladder is horizontal, and its center of gravity is 1/4 of the way from one end. At what distance x from this end must a can of paint, of mass 3/4 of that of the ladder, be suspended so that the men carry equal loads?
The figure shows three boards clamped together. The center board weighs 93.5 N, and the coefficient of static friction between the boards is 0.490. What is the minimum magnitude of the horizontal compression forces (in N) acting on either side of the center board so it does not slip?
