Neco 2022 Further Mathematics Question 31
Practice objective / multiple choice question 31 from the 2022 Neco Further Mathematics examination.
A right‑angled triangular lamina has base \(6\) m along the x‑axis and height \(8\) m along the y‑axis. Its weight is \(240\) N and acts at the centre of mass. The lamina is supported by a pin at the right‑angle vertex \(A\) and by a rope attached at the midpoint \(M\) of the hypotenuse. The rope makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) above the horizontal, directed towards the left. Determine (a) the tension in the rope (to the nearest newton) and (b) the magnitude of the vertical reaction at the pin (to the nearest newton).
