Question: Consider the pipe segment A B that lies in the x z - plane. The pipe is bent in a circular form with a radius

Consider the pipe segment AB that lies in the xz- plane. The pipe is bent in a circular form with a
radius of 4.8m. The pipe is supported at A by an unknown support and at B with a cable BC.
The system is subjected to a loading that is NOT shown.
Let F denote the tension in cable BC and consider the force ?bar(F) as in the sketch that the cable
exerts on the point B of the pipe.
Answer the following questions.
a)
Calculate cartesian vector moment ?bar(M) of force ?bar(F) about point A.
?bar(M)=1,bar(i)+bar(j)+bar(k)
b)
The geometrical representation of ?bar(M) is a vector that lies on a line. say l.
Complete the statements below by selecting the correct cption from the dropdown list.
Statements:
The point ?? points
lies f lie on l.
Vector ?bar(M) is [
to l.
The moment axis is
to ?bar(AB).
?bar(BC) is
?10bar(M)
The rotational effect that develops about l is
as perceived from the tp of the
?bar(M)= vector.
Consider the pipe segment A B that lies in the x
