Give full working and explain each step do in the most simple way. Use force triangles and 3 force member not simltanoues equations. A uniform rod has a length of l1 and mass of m. It is supported at A by a smooth wall and at B by a cord of length l2 which is attached to the wall as shown.
Variable l1 l2
Value 1.11.9
Units [m][m]
Hints:
This question can be solved without the use of simultaneous equations (Use 3 Force Bodies - Force Triangles).
Given the information in the table above, determine:
1) the distance h required to maintain equilibrium,
Answer for part 1(correct but show how to get)
0.894
[m],(3 sigfig)
(Note: There are extra questions that follow the first part.)
Variable m g
Value 39.81
Units [kg][ms-2]
Given the information in the tables above, determine:
2) the tension in cord BC required to maintain equilibrium,
Answer for part 2
[N],(3 sigfig)
3) the reaction at A required to maintain equilibrium,
Answer for part 3
[N],(3 sigfig, including sign: +/-)
