The black dot in the beam is a fixed pivot axis which is located at the very end of the beam (notice that c, e, and f have different pivots!). You may assume that forces are either applied at the end or the center of the beam. Angles that appear to be 90 degrees, are 90 degrees. If torques are equal in magnitude, please indicate this. If any of the torques are zero, please indicate this.arrow_forwardPlease show your work. Thank you! 01. A crane has an arm length of 20 m inclined at 30deg with the vertical.
