- The load W is to be lifted using the crane shown in the figure. Neglect the weight of the crane. Determine the resultant reaction at B.arrow_forwardThe bent bar ABD is supported by a ball joint at D and a bearing at A, and a rope at B. A mass of 100 kg is supported at E, as shown in the figure. Knowing that the bearing at A exerts forces only in the “z” and “y” directions, find the tension in chord BC. (TBC = 572 N)arrow_forwardAn exhaust system for a pickup truck is shown in the figure. The weights Wh, Wm, and Wt of the head pipe, and tailpipe are 10, 100, and 50 N, respectively, and act at the indicated points. If the exhaust pipe hanger at point A is adjusted so that its tension FA is 50 N and F. = FD, determine the required forces in the hangers at points B, C, and D so that the resultant and moment at point O is zero.arrow_forward
- A cable with supports at the same elevation has a span of 550 ft. The cable weighs 4 lb / ft and the sag at midspan is 100 ft. Determine The tension in the cable at a support.arrow_forwardDetermine the internal forces at point D of the frame shown in the figure.arrow_forwardSelect the distance a between 2 m and 5 m and the force P between 15 kN and 35 kN in the cage system shown in the figure and find the rod forces. Also note that the forces on the rods did not compress my tension. (AE, AB, BE, DE, CD, BC, BD =?)arrow_forward
- A bent pipe is connected by a thrust bearing and a cable asshown. If a Force, F = 195 lb, is applied, what are the reactions at the thrust bearing and in the cable. The dimensions shown are a = 7.2 ft, b = 6.2 ft, and c = 4.6 ft.arrow_forwardStructural members A and B are riveted to the support that shown in the figure. If both elements are known to be in compression and that the force in member A is 10 kN and in member B is 15 kN, determine by trigonometry the magnitude and direction of the result amount of the forces applied to the support by members A and B.arrow_forwardCable GH holds the truss composed of equilateral triangles in the position shown in the figure below. If P = 15.4 kN, a) Determine the tension in cable GH in kN. b) Determine the force in member DG in kN. c) Determine the force in member FG in kN. d) Determine the force in member DC in kN.arrow_forward
- 1. Three cables are used to tie the balloon that isshown in the figure. Determine the vertical force P thatexerts the balloon at A, if it is known that the tension in the wire ADis 641 N. 2. Three cables are used to tie the balloon that isshown in the figure. If the balloon is known to exert a force800 N vertical at A, determine the tension in each cable.arrow_forwardابحثوا بالملفات Q1 :Determine the tensions T₁ and T₂ in the ropes AB and CD as shown in the below Figure that were used to support a machine component has long 3 m and weight 2500 N, then discuss your results.arrow_forwardConsider the force P applied at point A on the plate of the figure shown (image 1). Assuming that the weight of the plate is negligible, and that the horizontal force F, as well as the reactions Dy and Dx in the joint D balance the plate shown in the figure, choose the alternatives that are true. Note: the x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical and both have their origin at point D. Data: P = 332N If the plate had a weight of 332N (applied vertically downwards in the center of the plate), the reaction Dy on the plate should be vertical downwards so that the plate still remained in balance in that position. True or false?arrow_forward
