A uniform beam of length L possesses a mass of 50.99 kg. The beam is attached by a fixed support to a rigid wall, and is supported by a cable anchored to a second point on the wall, as shown here. The cable is attached to the beam at a distance of 40% of the total length L from the wall, and makes an angle of 35º from the vertical. The cable has a circular cross- section and a radius of 0.750 cm. a. Draw a free-body diagram. b. Write and develop all applicable state equations. c. Determine the amount of tensile force on the cable. d. Determine the magnitude and direction of the x and y components of the force at the fixed support e. Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force at the fixed support. f. Determine the stress on the cable.
