A 500N person stands 2.5m from a wall against which a horizontal beam is attached. The beam is 6m long and weighs 200N. A cable

is attached to the free end of the beam and makes an angle of 45 to the horizontal and is attached to the wall.
1)Determine the magnitude of the tension of the cable.
2)Determine the reaction force that the wall exerts on the beam.

PART A)

Here by force balance along Y direction

Tsin45  + F_y = 500 + 200

Force balance along X direction

Tcos45 = F_x

now by torque balance

Tsin45 (6) = 500 (2.5) + 200 (3)

T(4.24) = 1250 + 600

T = 436.3 N

PART B)

now from above equations

Tsin45 + F_y = 700

F_y = 391.5 N

F_x = Tcos45 = 308.5 N

now net reaction force of wall is given as

F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}

F = 498.4 N

One billiard ball is shot east at 2.00 m/s. A second, identical billiard ball is shot west at 1.00 m/s. The balls have a glancin
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Velocity is 1.73 m/s along 54.65° south of east.

Explanation:

Let unknown velocity be v, mass of billiard ball be m and east direction be positive x axis.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = m x 2i + m x (-1)i = m i

Final momentum = m x v + m x 1.41 j = mv + 1.41 m j

Comparing

mi = mv + 1.41 m j

v = i - 1.41 j

Magnitude of velocity

      v=\sqrt{1^2+(-1.41)^2}=1.73m/s        

Direction,  

       \theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{-1.41}{1}\right )=-54.65^0             

Velocity is 1.73 m/s along 54.65° south of east.
