Question
![**Learning Goal:**
To determine the reaction forces at supports on a horizontal beam by using the equations of equilibrium for a static application.
As shown, beam ABC is supported by the roller at A and pin at C. The geometry of the beam is given by \( a = 2.0 \, \text{ft} \), \( b = 6.0 \, \text{ft} \), and \( c = 10.5 \, \text{ft} \). The applied forces are \( F_1 = 1.50 \, \text{kips} \) and \( F_2 = 1.00 \, \text{kips} \). Force \( F_1 \) is applied at an angle \( \theta = 55^\circ \) with the horizontal. Neglect the weight of the beam. \( (\text{Figure 1}) \)
### Figure
The figure shows a horizontal beam ABC:
- Support A is to the left as a roller support.
- Support C is to the right as a pin support.
- The beam is divided into three sections labeled from A to B with length \( a = 2.0 \text{ ft} \), from B to C with length \( b = 6.0 \text{ ft} \), and the section from C to the point where force \( F_1 \) is applied with length \( c = 10.5 \text{ ft} \).
- Force \( F_1 \) is applied at an angle \( \theta = 55^\circ \) near the end of the beam and force \( F_2 \) is applied vertically downward at point B.
