Q2 (5-23) :
The ramp of a ship has weight W and center of gravity at G. Determine the
cable force in CD needed to just start lifting the ramp, (i.e., so the reaction at
B becomes zero). Also, determine the horizontal and vertical components of
force at the hinge (pin) at A.
Given:
W := 1000N
a := 1.5m
0 := 30deg
b:= 1m
0:= 20deg
C:= 2m
FCD = 975N
Ay- 487.3N
dy- 156.0N
