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.

Short Answer

Expert verified

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

(b) The horizontal and vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall are 526.664 N and 95 N respectively.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The weight of the horizontal beam is,190 N .

02

Tensile force

When a force acts on the component that its fibers are stretched, and its length is increased, then this force is described as the 鈥榯ensile force鈥.

The tensile force acting on a weighted cable system can be calculated by balancing all the forces acting on the cable in the horizontal and vertical directions.

03

(a) The tension in the cable

The free-body diagram can be drawn as,

Here, T is the tension in the cable,is the angle of the cable from the horizontal beam,Hvis vertical, andHhis the horizontal component of the force exerted on the beam at the wall.

The tension in the cable can be divided into two components, the vertical component T , sinand the horizontal component Tcos.

From a right-angled triangle, we can write,

sin=35cos=45

Taking moments about point O, we get,

Tsin4m300N4m190N2m=04Tsinm1200Nm380Nm=04Tsinm=1580NmT=1580Nm4sinm

Putting the values in the above expression, we get,

T=1580Nm435mT=1580512NT=658.33N

Hence, the tension in the cable is 658.33 N .

04

(b) The horizontal and vertical components of the force

Balancing all the forces in the vertical direction, and we get,

Tsin+Hv=190N+300NTsin+Hv=490NHv=490NTsin

Putting the values in the above expression and we get,

Hv=490N658.33N35Hv=490N658.33N35Hv=490N395NHv=95N

Balancing all the forces in the horizontal direction, and we get,

HhTcos=0Hh=Tcos

Putting the values in the above expression and we get,

Hh=658.33N45Hh=526.664N

Hence, the horizontal and vertical components of the force exerted on the beam at the wall are 526.664 N and 95 N respectively.
