Finding the tension in cable


Assignment:

A uniform boom is at an angle of 45 degrees from the ground. It is held in place by a frictionless pin at ground level. Weight A= 2230 nt is suspended from its upper end and the boom's weight B= 441 nt. A cable from its upper end to ground level makes angle 30 degrees with the ground.

Find T, the tension in the cable and the magnitude of P, the total force exerted on the boom by the frictionless pin.
