Best Answer

The stress you induce on the beam is equal to weight hanging on the beam. The answer for the where part of the question is in the question. You said it yourself; you hang the weight from the center of the beam, therefore the stress of the weight will be in the center of the beam.

Weight of an object will be minimum when placed at?

The weight of an object will be minimum at high point like mountain. This is because weight depends on acceleration due to gravity and acceleration due to gravity is inversely proportional to the square of distance from center of earth to the object. As high places like mountain is far from earth center, there is minimun weight. But at the center of earth the weight becomes null as gravity pull takes place in all direction from the center.

What is the maximum mass that can be supported by a strut and cable arrangement if max force on the strut is 2500N?

Maximum upward force provided by strut = 2500NMaximum weight of the mass supported by strut = mg = -2500Ng = -9.8m/s2Max mass = max weight/g = - 2500N/-9.8m/s2 = 255.1kg


Which component of the body either inertia or gravity or mass or weight is considered to be concentrated at the centre of gravity?

Center of gravity = center of mass, for most practical purposes. Mainly, the center of mass is the place where you imagine the mass to be concentrated. However, as a result, you can also consider inertia and weight to be concentrated at the center of mass.
