The uniform bar AB weighs 35 N. It is supported by a ball and socket joint at point A and the cord CD which is attached to the bar at the location of the center of mass of the bar (point C). The bar AB leans against a frictionless vertical wall at point B. Determine (a) the tension in cord CD and (b) the reactions at A and B. 1.2 m 1.0 m 2.0 m A The uniform bar AB weighs 35 N.
