Solve the given statics problem for a beam that is 4m long and 25cm tall. The mass of the
beam is 118.8kgm. The beam is pinned at the left (A), and has a cable tension force at the
right (T). Show the beam's mass can be modeled as an applied force of 4.66kN at 2m from
the left. The beam also has an applied force of 10kN at a distance of 3m from the pin.
Assume x=y=0 at the pin.
Determine the horizontal and vertical forces at the pin (Ax, Ay) and the tension in the cable
(T). Also find the total magnitude of the force at the pin; find the required diameter of the
cable holding the force T, if the axial stress must be no more than 2000 psi.
Solve the given statics problem for a beam that
