Question:

Figure shows a steel meter stick hinged to a vertical wall and supported by a thin wire. The wire and meter stick make angles of 45o with the vertical. The mass of the meter stick is 5.0 kg. When a mass M = 10.0 kg is suspended from the midpoint of the meter stick, the tension T in the supporting wire is 52 N. If the wire will break should the tension exceed 75 N, what is the maximum distance along the meter stick at which the 10.0-kg mass can be suspended?
