Question: Consider A B = 1 m , B C = 3 m , C D = D E = E G = 2 . 5

Consider AB=1m,BC=3m,CD=DE=EG=2.5m for the following image. Find the
support reactions. Then, find the direction and the magnitude of an additional
minimum vertical force that will be applied 1 m to the right of point B and start a
rotation on the structure. (hint: think about how the support G is working to maintain
the equilibrium of the system)
Consider A B = 1 m , B C = 3 m , C D = D E = E G
