3. Cast-Iron WeightUsing two ropes and a roller chute, two workersare unloading a 200 kg cast-iron counterweightfrom a truck. Knowing that at the instant shownthe counterweight is kept from moving and thatthe positions of points A, B, and C are,respectively, A (0, -0.5 m, 1 m), B (-0.6 m, 0.8 m,0), and C (0.7 m, 0.9 m, 0), and assuming that nofriction exists between the counterweight and thechute, determine the tension in each rope.
Hint: Since there is no friction, the force exertedby the chute on the counterweight must beperpendicular to the chute.
TAB = 551 N, TAC = 503 N ◄
Determine the reactions on rollers at point A and hinge at point B, if the 39.0m and 14.0KN uniform bridge shown carries a 9000N car 5.00 meters from A and another 10000N vehicle 7.00 meters from B.

One engineer, Chersiphron, tried several different techniques to do this. One method was to cut pivot holes into the ends of the stone and then use oxen to pull the column. The 4-ft diameter column weighs 12,000 lbs, and the team of oxen generates a constant pull force of 1500 lbs on the center of the cylinder G. Knowing that the column starts from rest and rolls without slipping, determine (a) the velocity of its center G after it has moved 5 ft, (b) the minimum static coefficient of friction that will keep it from slipping.arrow_forward3.
