A uniform horizontal beam 4.0 m long and weighing 200 N is attached to the wall by a pin connection that allows the beam to rotate. It is supported by a cable that makes an Angle of 53 degrees with the horizontal. If the person of weight 350 N stands 1.50 m from the wall. Find the magnitude of the tension T in the cable. (Show your workout instead of giving the final answer).

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in the cable, T is 1,064.315 N

Explanation:

Here we have

Length of beam = 4.0 m

Weight = 200 N

Center of mass of uniform beam = mid-span = 2.0 m

Point of attachment of cable = Beam end = 4.0 m

Angle of cable = 53° with the horizontal

Tension in cable = T

Point at which person stands = 1.50 m from wall

Weight of person = 350 N

Therefore,

Taking moment about the wall, we have

∑Clockwise moments = ∑Anticlockwise moments

T×sin(53) = 350×1.5 + 200×2

T = 850/sin(53)  = ‭1,064.315 N.
