Question

A uniform horizontal beam 5.00 m long and weighting 3.03  102 N is attached to a wall by a pin connection that allows the beam to rotate. Its far end is supported by a cable that makes an angle of 53.0° with the horizontal (Figure (a)). If a person weighing 6.05  102 N stands 1.60 m from the wall, find the magnitude of the tension  in the cable and the force  exerted by the wall on the beam.

T =  N
