A trunk is cut and held by a tree feller as shown. If the hydraulic cylinder AC in this position is known to experience a compressive force of 283.46 kN, determine the corresponding (a) weight of the trunk, and (b the pin reactions at B. All dimensions are in cm. Solution with incorrect FBD will not be considered. Also all required forces should be reported in kN. 230 A 205 B 20 75 110 FIO All dimensions are in cm.

Do not round off intermediate values when using them to solve subsequent values; however, they may be written up to 4 decimal places in the answer sheets. Final answers should be rounded off up to 4 DECIMAL PLACES. Box the final answers.

A puck weighs 8 lb and rests on the center of the frictionless surface of the ramp supported in equilibrium by ropes AC and BC. Determine the normal force the ramp exerts on the puck as well as the tension in each of the two ropes. g Variable Value Values for dimensions on the figure are given in the following table. Note the figure may not be to scale. a b C d e f g9 36.0 in 45.0 in 13.5 in 27.7 in 45.0 in 18.0 in 35.0 in B The normal force acting on the puck is pounds The tension in rope AC is The tension in rope BC is C pounds pounds
