COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

( 0.3 m ) Dx ( 0.4 m )( 900 N ) = 0

COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

( 0.95 m )( 480 N ) ( 0.25 m ) Dx = 0,

Note: BE is a two-force member

Then, from (1) above,

COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

( 0.15 m + 0.08 m )(180 N ) = 0

FBD sect. CJ:

Note: AC is a two-force member, resolve FAC at C:

FBD sect. AB:

COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

Note: AB is a two-force member, so

(15 in.) Ax ( 24 in.)( 78 lb ) = 0

COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

Note: AB is a two-force member

FAB + ( 7.5 in.) FAB

( 5 in.)(124.8 lb ) (12 in.)( 26 lb ) M

Where W = ( 9 kg )( 9.81 N/kg ) = 88.29 N

COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

Note: Cut is just left of contact with ground.

W = ( 9 kg )( 9.81 N/kg ) = 88.29 N

FBD sect. BJ:

(12 lb ) cos 30 (12 lb ) sin 30 F = 0

(12 lb ) cos 30 + (12 lb ) sin 30 V

( 4 in.) sin 30 (12 lb ) + ( 4 in.)(1 cos 30 )(12 lb ) M

COSMOS: Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System

Chapter 7, Solution 10.

( 4 in.) sin (12 lb ) + ( 4 in.)(1 cos )(12 lb ) M

(a) to maximize M, set

F + (12 lb ) cos (12 lb ) sin = 0

(12 lb ) cos + (12 lb ) sin

From (1) above, M = ( 48 lb in.)(1 cos135 + sin135 ) = 115.88 lb in.
