- A beam rests on a fulcrum, 1.2 m from one end. A weight of 350 kg is suspended from this end causing the beam to balance. If the weight of 350 kg is suspended on the opposite end of the beam, it is necessary to suspend a 1000 kg weight on the first end in order to effect an even balance.

- A 6-m long ladder has a mass of 13 kg., and its center of gravity is 2.4 m from the bottom along the ladder. The ladder is resting on a 5° upward sloping floor at A and on a wall inclined to the right at 5° from the vertical at B, so that it makes an angle of 60° with the horizontal. How far up along the ladder can a 78-kg man climb before the ladder is on the verge of slipping? The angle of friction at all contact surfaces is 15°. Also determine the total reaction at A and B in Newton.

- c) The pulley system shown in Figure Q1c lifts a mass, m, of 550 kg. Calculate the force FAnecessary to maintain the suspended mass in static equilibrium; and determine the forces at the ceiling anchor points A and B. Assume frictionless and weightless pulleys and use g 9.81 m/s.arrow_forwardLearning Goal: To use the equations of equilibrium for a three-dimensional object to solve for the support reactions. The plate shown in (Figure 1) is supported by a roller and a cable in the xx-direction at AA, a ball-and-socket joint at BB, and a roller at CC. A force FFF = 6.6 kNkN is applied at the centroid of the plate parallel to the yzyz-plane and making an angle of θθtheta = 34 ∘∘ with the xyxy-plane. The sides ABAB and BCBC of the plate have length LLL = 1.2 mm . What is the reaction force in the yy-direction at point BB? Let a positive force act in the positive yy-direction. What is the reaction force in the zz-direction at point CC? What is the reaction force in the zz-direction at point AA? What is the reaction force in the zz-direction at point BB? What is the tension TT in the cable? What is the reaction force in the xx-direction at point BB? Let a positive force act in the positive xx-direction.arrow_forwardSolve correctly and by hand solve please ??arrow_forward
