Chapter 11, Problem 11.99(choose chapter or problem)
CALC Minimizing the Tension. A heavy horizontal girder of length L has several objects suspended from it. It is supported by a frictionless pivot at its left end and a cable of negligible weight that is attached to an I-beam at a point a distance h directly above the girders center. Where should the other end of the cable be attached to the girder so that the cables tension is a minimum? (Hint: In evaluating and presenting your answer, dont forget that the maximum distance of the point of attachment from the pivot is the length L of the beam.)
