A uniform beam of weight 2045 N and length 8 m is suspended horizontally. It is hinged to a wall, and is supported by a cable bolted to the wall at distance D above the hinge. A lazy cat, weighing 70 N, is sleeping on the beam 5 m away from its hinge point. The least tension the cable can handle is 2250 N. Required:a. What value of D corresponds to the maximum tension on the cable?b. To prevent the cable from snapping, should the D be increased or decreased?

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)
