3-4 The trailer hitch from Figure 1-1 (p. 11) has loads applied as shown in Figure P3-2. The tongue weight of 100 kg acts downward and the pull force of 4 905 N acts horizontally. Using the dimensions of the ball bracket in Figure 1-5 (p. 14), draw a free-body diagram of the ball bracket and find the tensile and shear loads applied to the two bolts that attach the bracket to the channel in Figure 1-1.

An elliptical exerciser machine (see figure part a) is composed of front and back rails. A simplified plane-frame model of the back rail is shown in figure part b. Analyze the plane-frame model to find reaction forces at supports A, B. and C for the position and applied loads given in figure part b. Note that there are axial and moment releases, at the base of member 2 so that member 2 can lengthen and shorten as the roller support at B moves along the 30° incline. (These releases indicate that the internal axial force N and moment M must be zero at this location
-19 The mechanical assembly shown in the figure consists of an aluminum tube, a rigid end plate, and two steel cables. The slack is removed from the cables by rotating the turnbuckles until the assembly is snug but with no initial stresses. Afterward, the turnbuckles are tightened by 1.5 turns. Calculate the forces in the tube and the cables and determine the shortening of the tube. As= 0.85 in2 for each cable, AA= 4.5 in2, L = 20 in., Es= 29,000 ksi, EA= 10,600 ksi, and p = 1/16 in
