A uniform horizontal beam weighs 500 N. One end of the beam is attached to a hinged support at
the wall. The beam is also supported by a cable attached at the end of the beam and to the wall. A
sign that weighs 125 N is attached to the beam at its midpoint and at its end. Assuming that the
half the weight of the sign is applied at the very end of the beam and half its weight is applied at
the beam's midpoint, find the tension in the cable and the total force acting on the beam at the
hinge.
