I'd appreciate help with this problem as I don't know how to start it:
A beam with a mass of 1500 kg and a length of 2.0 m hangs from two cables,
such that it makes an angle of 65degrees with the vertical. Both of the cables are completely
vertical; one is attached at the lower end of the beam, while the other is attached
0.40 m from the higher end of the beam. (a) Find the forces exerted by the two
cables.
