Force Diagram, Tension and Torque Problem
Not what you're looking for?
A heavy pole, of mass M and length L, is freely hinged to a wall at the point O. A rope connects the other end of the pole, B, to a fixed point A on the wall above O. The system is in equilibrium, with the pole making an angle of θ with the horizontal, and the rope making an angle α with the horizontal... (i)Draw a force diagram showing all the forces acting on the pole. (ii)... (See attachment for full question)
