The frame shown is fixed at D, is pinned at B and has a hydraulic cylinder connecting A and D. The dimensions are, a = 4.1ft, b = 9.8ft, and c = 5.5ft. If the frame is loaded with a box weighing, W = 213 lb, a. What is the force in the cylinder necessary to hold the box in the position shown. b. What is the force in the cylinder necessary to hold the box in position if the horizontal arm is rotated an angle, 0=47°?
