ES 1022Y - ENGINEERING STATICS ~ TEST #1 October 24, 2009 (2:00-3:30 pm) Name (print): ID: Question 1. The stick 4B, tightly wedged between the knob 4 and the wall at B, is keeping the door locked. A person, on the other side, is attempting to open the door by applying the force F = 200 N on the knob. The force is in a vertical plane parallel to x-z plane and inclined with an angle 40° with the horizontal. The stick does not slide and can resist (without breaking) a force, along its axis 4B, up to 180.N. Can this person open the door? Explain why Note: Ignore the size of the knob and assume the force F to be acting directly on the stick at A : @ Neto F $200 Gs4e = 1532N F d ‘ _ -(28.6N ~ A . @ Ee[isszt+ oy - 128.6 LIN @ uur vedor aN 7 4, ' < _ BB eoyix (0-089) 2(0-04)k 65-8 (1,0,0 AB AB” (wt + 88)" (-04F ina te deve p 0.
