When the weight of the load L = 279 grams, the pin force at pin B in a free body diagram of member AB, will be equal to an upwards force of 83.7 grams. Use this value to answer the following questions by considering free body diagrams of member EFG and member CDS in turn. 100 mm, 150 mm 250 mm H E F G CD 150 mm 350 mm B x S Free Body diagram BG Assume a member tension force to be positive. Provide your answer to 3 decimal place in units of grams. a) The axial force in member BG [grams] = [1 mark] Free Body diagram EFG Consider an upwards pointing reaction force at support H to be positive. Provide your answer to 3 decimal place in units of grams b) The vertical reaction force at support H [grams] = [1 mark] Consider an upwards force at pin E to be positive when considering the free body diagram of section EFG. Provide your answer to 3 decimal place in units of gram. c) The vertical force at pin E [grams] = [1 mark] Free Body diagram CDS Based on your answers above, if x = 200mm what is the value of the load S (grams) required to keep the system in equilibrium? Provide your answer to 3 decimal place in units of gram. d) The load S [grams] = When the weight of the load L = 279 grams, the pin force at pin B in a free body diagram of member AB, will be equal to an upwards force of 83.7 grams.
