A cantilever. The force vectors shown are hypothetical—one may even have a different direction. Solution: a. Calculate torques around the point where FJ acts; this gives FM = 400 N. b. This situation gives the same torque equation, so FM = 400 N still. Solution: We have three unknowns, FT and the two components of FH. We know the angle of the cable, though, so we really need find only one component of FH. Taking the torque around the point where FT and mg act, and using the force equations, we find FHy = 123 N, FHx = 687 N, and FT = 793 N. Solution: We have three unknowns, the force exerted by the wall and the two forces exerted by the floor (the normal force and the static frictional force). The normal force equals the weight, 118 N (from the vertical force equation), and the static frictional force equals the force exerted by the wall; writing the torque equation around the point where the ladder touches the floor gives FW = 44 N. Figure 12-14. Hooke’s law: The fractional change in length is proportional to the applied force. Figure 12-15. Applied force vs. elongation for a typical metal under tension. Solution: The elastic modulus for steel is in the table; F = 980 N. Figure 12-16. Stress exists within the material. Figure 12-17.
