A drawbridge design uses a beam with mass M and length L. The beam is hinged to a wall at its left end and supported by a rope on its right end. The rope is perpendicular to the beam. See figure. Find the hinge force components and the magnitude of the tension force in the rope. You may assume the drawbridge is in static equilibrium. The knowns are M, L,g and 0. (20 points) You must use a FBD to generate your equations. hinge beam center of mass wall rope
