Chapter 3, Solution 89.
(a)
First note that F = P and that F must be equivalent to (P, MD) at point D,
Where
M D = 57.6 N ⋅ m
For F = ( F )min
F must act as far from D as possible
∴ Point of application is at point B
(b) For ( F )min
Now
F must be perpendicular to BD
d DB =
( 630 mm )2 + ( −160 mm )2
= 650 mm
tan α =
63
16
α = 75.7°
Then
M D = d DB F
57.6 N ⋅ m = ( 0.650 m ) F
F = 88.6 N
or F = 88.6 N
.
75.7°
