Gce Model Questions Vol1 2023 Further Mathematics Question 38
Practice objective / multiple choice question 38 from the 2023 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Further Mathematics examination.
A uniform horizontal beam \(AB\) of length \(8\ \text{m}\) and weight \(200\ \text{N}\) is hinged at \(A\). The beam is supported by a cable attached at \(B\) which makes an angle of \(45^{\circ}\) above the horizontal. A horizontal wind force of \(50\ \text{N}\) acts to the right at a point \(5\ \text{m}\) from \(A\). A vertical load \(P\) (in newtons) acts downwards at a point \(3\ \text{m}\) from \(A\). Determine the value of \(P\) (to the nearest newton) for which the resultant reaction at the hinge \(A\) makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the vertical.
