A 5.25 m long rigid bar of negligible mass is supported by two identical
springs at its third points B and C and at hinge at the left end A. The
32 properties of the springs are: n= 20 turns, d = 15 mm, D = 150 mm. If a
2 mass of 50 kilograms is applied at the free end D:
a. Determine the ratio of the force exerted by spring C to spring B.
b. Assuming light spring, calculate the maximum shearing stress in the
spring
c. Calculate the minimum shearing stress in the spring .
