Determine the force created in the hydraulic cylinders EF and AD in order to hold the shovel in equilibrium. The shovel load has a mass W and a center of gravity at G. All joints are pin connected.

Units Used:

Mg = 103 kg

kN = 103 N

Given:

a = 0.25 m θ1 = 30 deg

b = 0.25 m θ2 = 10 deg

c = 1.5 m θ3 = 60 deg

d = 2 m W = 1.25 Mg

e = 0.5 m
