Question: For all problems, when reporting answers for reactions that do not involve 2 - force members, report the magnitude of each reaction with an arrow

For all problems, when reporting answers for reactions that do not involve 2-force members, report the magnitude of each reaction with an arrow that indicates the direction in which that reaction must react to maintain equilibrium of the object (don't include any +- signs). When reporting answers that do involve 2-force members, report the magnitude of the force felt in the 2-force member (which is the same as the force that 2-force member applies to object it's connected to), and tell whether the 2-force member experiences tension or compression (which is also what it applies to the object it's connected to).
Determine all of the reactions at the fixed support 0.
The beam AB has a triangularly distributed force applied as shown, and is supported by a pin at A and bar BC, which is pinned to beam AB at point B and is pinned at C to the pin support there.
Determine the reactions at A and at B.
3. The bent bar AB is supported by a pin at A and a roller in a smooth slot at B . Determine the reactions at A and B .
4. Beam AB is supported by a pin at A and bar BC, which is pinned at both ends. Determine the reactions at A and B .
5. Bar AB is supported by a pinned support at A and link BD. Determine the reactions at A and the force applied by link BD required to keep bar AB in equilibrium.
(Hint: You should draw a FBD of bar AB.)
