A uniform horizontal beam \(AB\) 6 m long is hinged at \(A\) to a wall. A cable is attached at \(B\) and makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal, supporting the beam. A downward point load of 800 N acts at a point 2 m from \(A\). Determine the tension in the cable and the horizontal and vertical components of the hinge reaction at \(A\).

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. T = 1600/3 N, R_y = 1600/3 N upward, R_x = 800\sqrt{3}/3 N to the right
B. T = 800\sqrt{3}\/3 N, R_y = 1600\/3 N upward, R_x = 800\/3 N to the right
C. T = 1600\/3 N, R_y = 800\sqrt{3}\/3 N upward, R_x = 1600\/3 N to the right
D. T = 800\/3 N, R_y = 800\/3 N upward, R_x = 1600\sqrt{3}\/3 N to the right
