QUESTION:

A 3.00-m-long, 240-N, uniform rod at the zoo is held in a horizontal position by two ropes at its ends (Fig. E11.19). The left rope makes an angle of \(150^{\circ}\) with the rod and the right rope makes an angle \(\theta\) with the horizontal. A 90-N howler monkey (Alouatta seniculus) hangs motionless 0.50 m from the right end of the rod as he carefully studies you. Calculate the tensions in the two ropes and the angle \(\theta\).  First make a free-body diagram of the rod.
