A uniform beam with mass M and length L is attached to the wall by a hinge, and supported by a cable. A mass of value 3M is susp

ended from the bar 3/4ths of its length from the wall. The angle indicated is 60°. What is the tension in the cable? What is the horizontal force provided by the hinge?

Answer:

The tension is  T= \frac{11}{2\sqrt{3} } Mg

The horizontal force provided by hinge   Fx= \frac{11}{4\sqrt{3} } Mg

Explanation:

   From the question we are told that

          The mass of the beam  is   m_b =M

          The length of the beam is  l = L

           The hanging mass is  m_h = 3M

            The length of the hannging mass is l_h = \frac{3}{4} l

            The angle the cable makes with the wall is \theta = 60^o

The free body diagram of this setup is shown on the first uploaded image

The force F_x \ \ and \ \ F_y are the forces experienced by the beam due to the hinges

      Looking at the diagram we ca see that the moment of the force about the fixed end of the beam along both the x-axis and the y- axis is zero

     So

           \sum F =0

Now about the x-axis the moment is

              F_x -T cos \theta  = 0

     =>     F_x = Tcos \theta

Substituting values

            F_x =T cos (60)

                 F_x= \frac{T}{2} ---(1)

Now about the y-axis the moment is  

           F_y  + Tsin \theta  = M *g + 3M *g ----(2)

Now the torque on the system is zero because their is no rotation  

   So  the torque above point 0 is

          M* g * \frac{L}{2}  + 3M * g \frac{3L}{2} - T sin(60) * L = 0

            \frac{Mg}{2} + \frac{9 Mg}{4} -  T * \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}    = 0

               \frac{2Mg + 9Mg}{4} = T * \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}

               T = \frac{11Mg}{4} * \frac{2}{\sqrt{3} }

                   T= \frac{11}{2\sqrt{3} } Mg

The horizontal force provided by the hinge is

             F_x= \frac{T}{2} ---(1)

Now substituting for T

              F_{x} = \frac{11}{2\sqrt{3} } * \frac{1}{2}

                  Fx= \frac{11}{4\sqrt{3} } Mg

the system shown above is released from rest. if friction is negligible, the acceleration of the 4.0 kg block sliding on the tab
JulsSmile [24]

The acceleration of the first block (4 kg) is -9.8 m/s².

The given parameters:

  • <em>Mass of the first block, m₁ = 4.0 kg</em>
  • <em>Mass of the second block, m₂ = 2.0 kg</em>

The net force on the system of the two blocks is calculated as follows;

m_2 g - T = m_1 a

where;

  • <em>T </em><em>is the tension in the connecting string due weight of the first block</em>

m_2 g - m_1 g = m_1 a\\\\a = \frac{m_2 g - m_1g}{m_1} \\\\a = \frac{g(m_2 - m_1)}{m_1} \\\\a = \frac{9.8(2-4)}{2} \\\\a = -9.8 \ m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the first block (4 kg) is -9.8 m/s².

What is the velocity of a 30-kg box with a kinetic energy of 6,000 J? 64 m/s
Nikolay [14]

Answer: 20 m/s

Explanation: To solve this problem we have to consider the expression of the kinetic energy given by:

Ekinetic=(1/2)*(m*v^2)

then E=0.5*30Kg*(20 m/s)^2=15*400=6000J
