Question

The figure shows a model of a crane that may be mounted on a truck.A rigid uniform horizontal bar of mass m1 = 85.00kg and length L = 5.800m is supported by two vertical massless strings. String A is attached at a distance d = 1.200m from the left end of the bar and is connected to the top plate. String B is attached to the left end of the bar and is connected to the floor. An object of mass m2 = 2500kg is supported by the crane at a distance x = 5.600m from the left end of the bar.

Throughout this problem, positive torque is counterclockwise and use 9.807m/s2 for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

Find TA, the tension in string A.

Find TB, the magnitude of the tension in string B.

Explanation / Answer

Ta == 116429.52 N

Tb == 91078.42
