Statics Tutorial Sheet 3.2-New (for chapter 3)

3.55 The frame ACD is hinged at A and D and is supported


by a cable that passes through a ring at B and is attached to
hooks at G and H . Knowing that the tension in the cable is
450 N, determine the moment about the diagonal AD of the
force exerted on the frame by portion BH of the cable.

3.70 Two parallel 60-N forces are applied to a


lever as shown. Determine the moment of the
couple formed by the two forces ( a ) by resolving
each force into horizontal and vertical components
and adding the moments of the two resulting
couples, ( b ) by using the perpendicular distance
between the two forces, ( c ) by summing the
moments of the two forces about point A .

3.81 The tension in the cable attached to the


end C of an adjustable boom ABC is 560 lb.
Replace the force exerted by the cable at C
with an equivalent force-couple system ( a )
at A , ( b ) at B .
3.83 The 80-N horizontal force P acts on a
bell crank as shown.
( a ) Replace P with an equivalent force-
couple system at B .
( b ) Find the two vertical forces at C and D
that are equivalent to the couple found in
part a .

3.85 The force P has a magnitude of 250 N and is applied


at the end C of a 500-mm rod AC attached to a bracket at
A and B . Assuming α = 30° and β = 60°, replace P with
( a ) an equivalent force-couple system at B ,
( b ) an equivalent system formed by two parallel forces
applied at A and B .

3.86 Solve Prob. 3.85, assuming α = β = 25°.

3.92 A rectangular plate is acted upon by the force


and couple shown.
This system is to be replaced with a single equivalent
force. ( a ) For α = 40°, specify the magnitude and the
line of action of the equivalent force. ( b ) Specify the
value of a if the line of action of the equivalent force is
to intersect line CD 300 mm to the right of D .
3.98 A 77-N force F 1 and a 31-N /
m couple M 1 are applied to
corner E of the bent plate shown.
If F 1 and M 1 are to be replaced
with an equivalent force-couple
system ( F 2 , M 2 ) at corner B
and if ( M 2 ) z = 0, determine
( a ) the distance d ,
( b ) F 2 and M 2 .

3.107 A beam supports three loads of given


magnitude and a fourth load whose
magnitude is a function of position. If b = 1.5
m and the loads are to be replaced with a
single equivalent force, determine
( a ) the value of a so that the distance from
support A to the line of action of the
equivalent force is maximum, ( b ) the
magnitude of the equivalent force and its
point of application on the beam.

3.113 A truss supports the loading shown.


Determine the equivalent force acting on the
truss and the point of intersection of its line
of action with a line drawn through points A
and G .
3.119 Four forces are applied to the machine component ABDE as shown.
Replace these forces by an equivalent force-couple system at A.

3.147 A crate of mass 80 kg is held in the position


shown. Determine
( a ) the moment produced by the weight W of the
crate about E ,
( b ) the smallest force applied at B that creates a
moment of equal magnitude and opposite sense
about E .
3.154 A worker tries to move a rock by applying a 360-N force to a steel bar as shown.
( a ) Replace that force with an equivalent force-couple system at D .
( b ) Two workers attempt to move the same rock by applying a vertical force at A and another force
at D . Determine these two forces if they are to be equivalent to the single force of part a .

3.155 A 110-N force acting in a vertical plane parallel to the yz plane is applied to the 220-mm-long
horizontal handle AB of a socket wrench. Replace the force with an equivalent force-couple system
at the origin O of the coordinate system.
