The uniform 3-kg rod AB is supported by a ball-and-socket joint at A and by the cord CG that is attached to the midpoint G of the rod as shown in the figure. The rod leans against a frictionless vertical wall at B. y 150 mm 150 mm C B 400 mm G O 600 mm A Determine the tension in the cord. (You must provide an answer before moving to the next part.) The tension in the cord is N.

Rod $A B$ is held in place by the cord $A C$. Knowing that the tension in the cord is 1350 N and that $c=360$ mm, determine the moment about $B$ of the force exerted by the cord at point $A$ by resolving that force into horizontal and vertical components applied $(a)$ at point $A,(b)$ at point $C$.

Rod $A B$ is held in place by the cord $A C$. Knowing that $c=840 \mathrm{mm}$ and that the moment about $B$ of the force exerted by the cord at point $A$ is $756 \mathrm{N} \cdot \mathrm{m}$, determine the tension in the cord. (Figure cant copy)
