The figure a shows a horizontal uniform beam of mass mo and length L that is supported on the left by a hinge attached to a wall and on the right by a cable at angle 0 with the horizontal. A package of mass mp is positioned on the beam at a distance x from the left end. The total mass is mp + mp = 56.5 kg. The figure b gives the tension T in the cable as a function of the package's position given as a fraction x/L of the beam length. The scale of the T axis is set by T₁ = 500 N and Tb = 700 N.
