Question:
Figure shows a 25-foot sloop. The mast is a uniform pole of 120 kg and is supported on the deck and held fore and aft by wires as shown. The tension in the forestay (wire leading to the bow) is 1000 N. Determine the tension in the back stay and the force that the deck exerts on the mast. Is there a tendency for the mast to slide forward or aft? If so, where should a block be placed to prevent the mast from moving?
