You're carrying a 4.0-m-long, 21 kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pole on a fence post and hold the other end of the pole 35 cm from its tip. How much force must you exert to keep the pole motionless in a horizontal position?

Two wooden members of 80 × 120-mm uniform rectangular cross section are joined by the simple glued scarf splice shown. knowing that β = 22° and that the maximum allowable stresses in the joint are, respectively, 400 kpa in tension (perpendicular to the splice) and 690 kpa in shear (parallel to the splice), determine the largest centric load p that can be applied using mohr's circle. (round the final answer to two decimal places.)
