Question

A rigid uniform bar of length L and mass m is suspended by a massless wire AC and a rigid massless link BC. Determine the tension in BC immediately after AC breaks.

Answer 1

Answer:

hello the needed diagram is missing attached below is the diagram and the detailed solution

The tension in BC = $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{4} mg$

Explanation:

ATTACHED BELOW IS THE DETAILED SOLUTION T THE GIVEN PROBLEM

Ma = mg - T/ $\sqrt{2}$  equation 1

Ma = 3T / $\sqrt{2}$   equation 2

equate both equations to determine the tension on BC
