A 1220-N uniform beam is attached to a vertical wall at one end and is supported by a cable at the other end. A 1960-N crate hangs from the far end of the beam. FTis the Tension in the cable. FVand FHare the vertical and horizontal components of the force on from the wall on the beam. Why is the direction of FVup and not down

Respuesta :

Answer:

Suppose the cable was vertical.

Vertical forces have to cancel to zero.

If you added weight to the beam the vertical force (supposed down)

the cable has to support the added weight as well as the weight added to the cable.

One could create a perpetual motion machine by using the additional downward force on the wall from weight applied to the beam. That is because

2 forces must be offset by the force Fv. That is, both the cable and the additional weight would contribute to the downward force at Fv.
