Question 1(50%)
Forces are acting on a rigid pipe frame with a built-in joint at O as shown. Hint: Write down coordinates of A, B, C, and D.
(a) Draw a free body diagram of the overall pipe system. (5%)
(b) Draw a free body diagram of the pipe ABC . You should derive the numerical values of all forces and moments acting on the free body ABC and show them in the FBD.(5%)
(c) Find vector moment of the 100 N force at A about junction D.(5%)
(d) Find the vector of reaction force at O.(15%)
(e) Find the vector of reaction moment at O.(15%)
(f) Find the angle between the reaction force at O (i.e. answer to part (e)) and the 100 N force at A.(5%)
