Question: 4 . A post with a solid circular cross section supports a load applied on a plane parallel to the yz - plane. The load

4. A post with a solid circular cross section supports a load applied on a plane parallel to the yz-plane. The load is at an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) from a line parallel to y axis as shown in the figure below. The height of the post is 27 ft . The distance from the load application point to the centroid of the vertical part of the post is 5 ft . The diameter of the post is 4 in .
(a) Clearly show the direction of each force and moment acting on the cross section where point A is located using Figure 2 as your sketch for the cross section.
(b) Determine the magnitude of all the forces and moments acting on the cross section where point A is located.
(c) Calculate the normal stress and shear stress at point A.
