Statics – Set 1

Instruction: Present your solution in details.

1. Determine the moment of the force about point O.

2. Determine the moment of the force about point O.


3. If the man at B exerts a force of P = 30 lb on his rope, determine the magnitude of the
force F the man at C must exert to prevent the pole from rotating, i.e., so the resultant
moment about A of the both forces is zero.

4. The towline exerts a force of P = 4 KN at the end of the 20-m-long crane boom. If x = 25m,
determine the position Ø of the boom so that this force creates a maximum moment about
point O. what is the moment?
