Daily statics

Dear students,

This discussion form is a bit different. Instead of discussing the post of other students, you will

need to discuss your own post. The problem is

Find an example of a structure or machine with multiple forces acting on it and take a picture

of it$.$ Post the photo along with the following:

$($a$)$ Create a clear, labeled drawing of the structure or machine.

$($b$)$ Estimate the dimensions, magnitudes, and directions of the forces acting on it$.$ Include

these in your drawing. Briefly explain how you determined the dimensions and forces.

$($c$)$ Use your preferred method to calculate the resultant of the system of forces.
