- The toggle-wedge is an effective device to close the gap between two planks during construction of a wooden boat. For the combination shown, if a force P of 275 lb is required to move the wedge, determine the friction force F acting on the upper end A of the toggle. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction for all pairs of mating surfaces are taken to be 0.34. Assume 0 = 15%, p = 7° P Ꮎ Answer: F = i A lbarrow_forward1)arrow_forwardPlease correct my understanding of this question. -In the equation of the moment at point A, there is a value, 36(11.5). I assume that is a force from the distributed load. -If you are finding the moment at point A, wouldn't you only need one value from the distributed load which is 27(10)? So my question is how do you get the value of 36 and 11.5, separately. And what is it for?arrow_forward
- Solve the problem by the moment-area method. The beam has constant flexural rigidity EI. A simple beam AB supports two concentrated loads P at the positions shown in the figure. B C 4. 4 A support C at the midpoint of the beam is positioned at distance d below the beam before the loads are applied. Assuming that d = 12 mm, L = 5.4 m, E = 200 GPa, and I = 193 x 10° mm, calculate the magnitude of the loads P (in kN) so that the beam just touches the support at C. 163.87 x kNarrow_forwardFor the simply supported beam subjected to the loading shown, derive equations for the shear force V and the bending moment M for any location in the beam. (Place the origin at point A.) Let a=1.50 m, b=5.00 m, PA = 75kN, and PC = 90kN. Construct the shear-force and bending-moment diagrams. Calculate the reaction forces By and Dy acting on the beam.
