The horizontal beam in Fig. E11.14 weighs 190 N, and its center of gravity is at its center. Find (a) the tension in the cable and (b) the horizontal and vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall.

Respuesta :

Answer:

(a). The tension in the cable is 658.33 N.

(b). The horizontal components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 526.66 N.

(c). The vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 95.002 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of beam= 190 N

Here, The center of gravity is at its center

According to figure,

The angle is

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]

The horizontal component is

[tex]T_{x}=T\cos\theta[/tex]

The vertical component is

[tex]T_{y}=T\sin\theta[/tex]

(a). We need to calculate the tension in the cable

Using formula of net torque acting on the pivot

[tex]\sum\tau=F_{b}\times r+F_{w}\times r'-T\sin \theta\times r'[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]0=190\times2+300\times 4-T\sin\theta\times 4[/tex]

[tex]T\sin\theta\times 4=380+1200[/tex]

[tex]T=\dfrac{1580\times5}{3\times 4}[/tex]

[tex]T=658.33\ N[/tex]

(b). We need to calculate the horizontal components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall

Using formula of horizontal component

[tex]F_{x}=T\cos\theta[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]F_{x}=658.33\times\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]F_{x}=526.66\ N[/tex]

(c). We need to calculate the vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall

Using formula of vertical component

[tex]F_{y}=F_{b}+F_{w}-T\sin\theta[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]F_{y}=190+300-658.33\times\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]

[tex]F_{y}=95.002\ N[/tex]

Hence, (a). The tension in the cable is 658.33 N.

(b). The horizontal components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 526.66 N.

(c). The vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall is 95.002 N.

The tension in the cable is 658.33 N.

The horizontal and vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall are 526.66 N and 95.002 N. respectively.

Calculation and Parameters:

Given:

Weight of beam= 190 N

The horizontal component= Tcosθ

The vertical component= Tsinθ

To calculate the tension of the cable

Tsinθ x 4 = 380 + 1200

=658.33 N.

To find the horizontal component

=658.33 N x 4/5

= 526.66 N.

To find the vertical component

=190 + 300 -658.33 x 3/5

=95.002 N
