. A uniform horizontal strut weighs 400.0 N. One end of the strut is attached to a hinged support at the wall, and the other end of the strut is attached to a sign that weighs 200.0 N. The strut is also supported by a cable attached between the end of the strut and the wall. Assuming that the entire weight of the sign is attached at the very end of the strut, find the tension in the cable and the force at the hinge of the strut.
The diagram shows a sign that wighs 50 N hanging from a uniform horizontal pole. The pole weighs 30 Newton's and it is 1.6 m long. Determine the tension in the supporting cable C and the magnitude and direction of the two component forces at the pivot, P, exert on the pole.
A uniform 50-kg scaffold of length 7.0 m is supported by two light cables, as shown below.
