As shown in the figure, a 10.0 m long bar is attached by a frictionless hinge to a wall and held horizontal by a light rope that makes an angle ? = 26° with the bar. The bar is uniform and weighs 32.8 N. What distance x (in m) from the hinge should a 10.0 kg mass be suspended for the tension in the rope to be 150 N?

Step 1

- The weight of the bar (W_bar) = 32.8 N, acting at the center of the bar (5.0 m from the hinge). - The weight of the 10.0 kg mass (W_mass) = 10.0 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 98 N, acting at a distance x from the hinge. - The tension in the rope (T) = 150 N, making an Show more…
