In the figure above, a 47 kg boom of length 5.5 m is supported by a cable that has a braking tension of 750 N. The cable is perpendicular to the boom and is...

A plank, of length L=3.7 m and mass M=9.7 kg, rests on the ground and on a frictionless roller at the top of a wall of height h=1.60 m. The center of gravity of...

A non-uniform bar of weight W=45.0 N is suspended at rest in a horizontal position by two massless cords. The angle ϕ between cord 2 and the vertical is equal to 27.5°. The bar...

A 26.4 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hinge and its far end is supported by a cable such that the angle between the beam and the cable is 90°. If...

The weightless horizontal bar in the figure below is in equilibrium. Scale B reads 4.20 kg (N.B. as you know, the scale should read N, but no one told manufacturer). The distance in the...

A uniform horizontal bar of length L=5m and weight 251 N is pinned to a vertical wall and supported by a thin wire that makes an angle θ=25° with the horizontal. A mass M,...

The system in the figure is in equilibrium. A mass M1=234 kg hangs from the end of a uniform strut which is held at an angle θ=42.0° with respect to the horizontal. The cable...

A uniform sphere of weight 9.0 N and radius 17.8 cm is held in place by a rope attached to a frictionless wall, a distance 74.0 cm above the center of the sphere. Solution...

You are holding a ball of mass 108 g in your hand as shown in the figure.Your arm (length L=57 cm) is held in an outstretched horizontal position by action of the deltoid muscle,...
