Two tape spools are attached to an axle supported by bearings at A and D. The radius of spool B is 1.5 in. and the radius of spool C is 2 in. Knowing that TB = 20 lb and that the system rotates at a constant rate, draw the free body diagram needed to determine the reactions at A and D. Assume that the bearing at A does not exert any axial thrust and neglect the weights of the spools and axle.
