kN, and MO = 360 kNm counterclockwise. Determine the point at which the resultant intersects the x-axis. Solution 260
answer
Problem 261 In a certain non-concurrent force system it is found that Fx = -80 lb, Fy = +160 lb, and MO = 480 lbft in a counterclockwise sense. Determine the point at which the resultant intersects the y-axis. Solution 261
answer
Problem 262 Determine completely the resultant of the forces acting on the step pulley shown in Fig. P-262.
Solution 262
Thus, R = 1254.89 lb downward to the right at x = 44.21 and passes through the axle. Problem 263 Determine the resultant of the force system shown in Fig. P-263 and its x and y intercepts.
Solution 263
Thus, R = 161.314 lb upward to the right at x = 21.69 and intercepts at (1.668, 0) and (0, -0.671). Problem 264 Completely determine the resultant with respect to point O of the force system shown in Fig. P-264.
Solution 264
Thus, R = 544.68 N upward to the right at x = 28.25. The intercepts of R are (-4.57, 0) and (0, 2.46). Problem 265 Compute the resultant of the three forces shown in Fig. P-265. Locate its intersection with X and Y axes.
Solution 265
Thus, R = 957.97 lb downward to the right at x = 32.19. The x-intercept is at 2.90 ft to the right of O and the y-intercept is 1.83 ft above point O. Problem 266 Determine the resultant of the three forces acting on the dam shown in Fig. P-266 and locate its intersection with the base AB. For good design, this intersection should occur within the middle third of the
Righting moment
Overturning moment
(within the middle third) Thus, R = 27 424.02 lb downward to the right at x = 79.91 and passes through the base at 8.44 ft to the left of B which is within the middle third. Problem 267 The Howe roof truss shown in Fig. P-267 carries the given loads. The wind loads are perpendicular to the inclined members. Determine the magnitude of the resultant, its inclination with the horizontal, and where it intersects AB.
Solution 267
Thus, R = 10 778.16 N downward to the right at x = 68.2 passing 4.46 m to the right of A.
Problem 268 The resultant of four forces, of which three are shown inFig. P-268, is a couple of 480 lbft clockwise in sense. If each square is 1 ft on a side, determine the fourth force completely. Solution 268 Let F4 = the fourth force and for couple resultant, R is zero.
Thus,
d is positive, thus, the assumption is correct that F4 is above point O. Therefore, the fourth force is 200 lb acting horizontally to the left at 5.8 ft above point O. answer
Problem 269 Repeat Prob. 268 is the resultant is 390 lb directed down to the right at a slope of 5 to 12 passing through point A. Also determine the x and y intercepts of the missing force F.
Thus, F4 = 219.32 lb downward to the right at x = 43.15 with x-intercept ix = 3.27 to the right of O, and yintercept iy = 3.06 ft above point O. Problem 270 The three forces shown in Fig. P-270 are required to cause a horizontal resultant acting through point A. If F = 316 lb, determine the values of P and T. Hint: Apply MR = MB to determine R, then MR = MC to find
answer
answer Problem 271 The three forces in Fig. P-270 create a vertical resultant acting through point A. If T is known to be 361 lb, compute the values of F and P.
