A uniform beam \(AB\) of length \(6\) m and weight \(120\) N is hinged at \(A\) to a vertical wall. The beam is supported by a cable attached at \(B\) which makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the beam and is anchored to the wall above \(A\). A downward force of \(80\) N is applied at a point \(2\) m from \(A\). Determine (i) the tension in the cable (in newtons, correct to two decimal places) and (ii) the horizontal component of the reaction at the hinge \(A\).

Correct Answer A. T = 173.33 N, Ax = 150.00 N

B. T = 160.00 N, Ax = 140.00 N

C. T = 180.00 N, Ax = 155.00 N

D. T = 173.33 N, Ax = 140.00 N

Correct Answer

Correct Option:

T = 173.33 N, Ax = 150.00 N
