A concrete block of mass 225 kg hangs from the end of the uniform strut of mass 45.0 kg. A cable runs from the ground, over the top of the strut, and down to the block, holding the block in place. For angles p=30.0° and 0=45.0°, determine the tension T in the cable and the force on the strut from the hinge (in unit-vector notation). Show your work for full credit.

Consider the hinge on the drawbridge of the previous problem. (a) Compute the force on the hinge FH(x) as a function of the archaeologist's location x. Compute both the horizontal and vertical components of the force. Your result should be two functions of the unknown variable x. Express your result only in terms of the parameters L, h, W, and w. (b) Suppose the rope has been reinforced so that it can support up to 1000 lbs without breaking. If the hinge can withstand a maximum force of 500 lbs without breaking, is it safe for the archaeologist to cross? Don't guess. Justify your response with a calculation. If it is safe to cross, what is the margin of safety? I.e., how much less is the maximum force on the hinge than the upper limit of 500 lbs? If it is not safe to cross, how far can the archaeologist walk before the hinge gives out?
