Question: 1 . A 1 0 . 0 m long pole with a mass of 2 5 . 0 kg is attached to a wall by

1. A 10.0m long pole with a mass of 25.0 kg is attached to a wall by a hinge at one end. It is held horizontal by a cable that is attached to an unknown location on the pole. The tension of the cable is 185N and it makes a 65.0 angle with the pole.
a) Where is the cable attached? Give as a distance from the hinge.
b) What will be the magnitude and direction of the hinge force?
c) Suppose the cable will break if its tension reaches 199 N. A 10.0 kg monkey starts to walk out onto the pole, starting at the wall. How far from the wall can the monkey get before the cable breaks?
