A homogeneous rod of mass m=1kg and length L=2m is hinged in A to vertical wall and forms an angle α = 45’ with it. A mass of M = 12kg is attached at a distance D = 3/4L and a rope with negligible mass is attached at its extremely which supports the maximum tension | Tmax|= 1000N.
Calculate:
a) The rope tension ( magnitude and direction)
b) The maximum mass Mmax and the range of values that M can assume without the rope breaking.
