Chapter 3, Solution 107.
(a) Have
ΣM D :
0 = M − ( 0.8 in.)( 40 lb ) − ( 2.9 in.)( 20 lb ) cos 30° − ( 3.3 in.)( 20 lb ) sin 30°
or M = 115.229 lb ⋅ in.
or
M = 115.2 lb ⋅ in.
Now, R is oriented at 45° as shown (since its line of action
passes through B and D).
0 = ( 40 lb ) cos 45° − ( 20 lb ) cos15°
Have ΣFx′ :
− ( 90 lb ) cos (α + 45° )
or α = 39.283°
or
(b) ΣFx :
α = 39.3°
Rx = 40 − 20sin 30° − 90cos 39.283°
= − 39.663 lb
Now
.
R=
2 Rx
or
R = 56.1 lb
45.0°
