A 50 kg pole extends up a wall, making a 60° angle with the wall. The pole is supported by acable attached 3/4 of the way along the pole. This support cable is perpendicular to the wall.A 10 kg sign hangs from the end of the pole. The pole’s center of mass is 1/3 of the way fromthe wall to the end of the pole. (a) What is the tension in the cable?(b) What are the x and y components of the force the wall exerts on the pole?You must include an extended free body diagram showing all forces acting on the pole. Labelthe location on the pole you will use a reference for measuring distances (the “axis of rotation”) at the point where the pole touches the wall. Thank you!
The figure shows the Russel fracture traction device and a mechanical model of the leg. The leg is held in balance in the position indicated by the two weights attached to the two cables. The combined weight of the leg and cast is W=180 N. The horizontal distance between points A and B where the cables are attached to the leg is L=100 cm and the vertical distance is d=5 cm. Point C is the center of gravity of the cast and leg at three quarters of the L measured from point A (3L/4= 75 cm). The angle that cable 2 makes with the horizontal is measured as β=30°. Accordingly, in order for the leg to remain in balance in the shown position; a) Find the tensile force T1 in cable 1. (Write your result in N) Answerb) Find the tensile force T2 in cable 2. (Write your result in N) Answerc) Find the angle α of cable 1 with the horizontal. Response
