A frame used for a chair is shown. Given that FD =40 lb.
NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part.
A horizontal surface on which a person is sitting. A positively sloped member ABCD is placed on the horizontal base. The negatively sloped member GFCE is placed on the horizontal base. Pin C is common for both members. A horizontal bar BF is connected between pin B and F. A vertical arrow labeled 60 pounds is pointing down towards point E. A vertical arrow of labeled F subscript D is pointing down towards point D. Horizontal distance between point A and pin C is 4 inches. The horizontal distance between pin C and Point G is 4 inches. The vertical distance between point D and pin C is 8 inches. The vertical distance between pin C and pin F is 5 inches. The vertical distance between pin F and point G is 3 inches.
Determine the force supported by members ABCD,ECFG, and BF. Neglect friction at points A and G.(Include a minus sign if necessary.)
The force supported by members ABCD,ECFG, and BF is as follows:
Gy = lb
Ay = lb
Bx = lb(Round the final answer to one decimal place.)
Cx = lb(Round the final answer to one decimal place.)
Cy = lb
