Gce Model Questions Vol1 2018 Further Mathematics Question 29
Practice objective / multiple choice question 29 from the 2018 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Further Mathematics examination.
A uniform beam \(AB\) of length \(6\text{ m}\) and weight \(240\text{ N}\) is hinged at \(A\) to a vertical wall. The beam is held horizontal and is supported by a cable \(BD\) attached to the free end \(B\) and anchored to a point \(D\) on the wall directly above \(A\). The cable makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal. Determine (a) the tension in the cable, and (b) the magnitude and direction of the reaction force at the hinge \(A\). Express the direction as the angle above the horizontal.
