3. Consider a rectangular steel plate which is 4 feet long and 5 feet wide (into the page) which is placed in water. The plate is inclined at 30° from horizontal along its length. The top edge of the plate is submerged 3 feet below the water surface. a) Determine the magnitude of the resultant force FR acting on the surface of the plate in pounds. b) Determine the vertical distance in feet from the water surface to the location where the resultant force acts on the plate.

complete solution with illustration, thanks
Knowing that P is 30 kN, applied to both sides of the bar at B and Q is 28 kN, applied to the bar at C as shown. What is the internal normal force acting on a vertical cross-section passing through the bar between points B and C? Express your answer in Newtons (not kN), to the nearest whole Newton, taking tension as positive and compression as negative.

A 50 meter steel tape is suspended in the air between a transit and a vertical rod which is placed exactly at the 50 meter mark. The slope of the measured line is 1 degree and 30 minutes. The tension on the tape is 10 kg, and the weight of the tape per unit length is 0.05 kg/m. What normal tension ( N ) is required in order that the effect of sag will be eliminated when the tape is supported at end points only? The standard pull is 10kg. Tape area is 8 mm2. E = 200 GPa. need answers and solutions asap, thank you!
