Question 3:
Look at the following diagram. The mass of the drawbridge shown
is 2500 kg. Suppose a 1002.002 kg
car is on the bridge with its centre of mass halfway between the
hinges and the cable attachments. (The bridge is supported by the
two cables and hinges only). Using the diagram below, answer these
questions:
1. What is the tension in the cables in N?
2. What is the magnitude of the force exerted by the hinges on
the bridge in N?
3. What is the angle the force exerted by the hinges makes to
the horizontal (θ in the figure) in radians?
