Meriam, Kraige & Bolton — Plane Kinetics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 6_8

6/8 The 6-kg frame AC and 4-kg uniform slender bar AB of length \( l \) slide with negligible friction along the fixed horizontal rod under the action of the 80-N force. Calculate the tension \( T \) in wire BC and the \( x \)- and \( y \)-components of the force exerted on the bar by the pin at A. The \( x \)-\( y \) plane is vertical.
