A purple beam is hinged to a wall to hold up a blue sign. The beam has a mass of mb = 6.3 kg and the sign has a mass of ms = 15.1 kg. The length of the beam is L = 2.74 m. The sign is attached at the very end of the beam, but the horizontal wire holding up the beam is attached 2/3 of the way to the end of the beam. The angle the wire makes with the beam is θ = 31.7°.

A)What is the tension in the wire?
B)What is the net force the hinge exerts on the beam?
C)The maximum tension the wire can have without breaking is T = 931 N.

What is the maximum mass sign that can be hung from the beam?

A 4-m long, 150-kg steel beam is attached to a wall with one end connected to a hinge that allows the beam to rotate up and down
A 4-m long, 150-kg steel beam is attached to a wall with one end connected to a hinge that allows the beam to rotate up and down. The other end of the beam is held in a horizontal position with a cable that makes a 27° angle with the beam and is attached to the wall (see (Figure 1) ). What is the tension force that keeps this beam in static equilibrium?

A cross was made between a plant that has blue flowers and purple seeds to a plant with white flowers and green seeds. This is a parental cross and the parents are homozygous for both characters (color of the flower and color of the seeds). The resulting offspring (the F1 generation) is allowed to self-fertilize. Complete a Punnett square representing the F2 generation that results from the above self-fertilization. The traits blue flowers (B) and purple seeds (P) are dominant...
