You need to repair a gate on the farm. The gate weighs 100 kg and pivots as indicated. A small diagonal bar supports the gate an

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The force is $F = 3920 \ N$

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

The weight of the gate is $G = 100\ kg$

The vertical component of F is $F_y = F\ sin \theta$

From the diagram , taking moment about the pivot we have

$W_g * 2 - F_y * 1 = 0$

Where $W_g$ is the weight of the gate evaluated as

$W_g = m_g * g = 100 * 9.8 = 980 \ N$

=> $980 * 2 - Fsin(30) * 1 = 0$

=> $F = \frac{1960}{sin(30)}$

=> $F = 3920 \ N$
