STATICS OF RIGID BODIES

Answer the following. Box your final answer.

1. The structural members, one of which is in tension and


the other in compression, exert the indicated forces on
joint O. Determine the magnitude of the resultant R of the
two forces and the angle θ which R makes with the
positive x-axis.

5. Two cables are tied together at C and are loaded as


shown. Determine the tension in cable AC and cable BC.
Draw its free-body diagram.

2. The two forces shown act at point A of the bent bar.


Determine the resultant R of the two forces.

3. At what angle θ must the 400-lb force be applied in order


that the resultant R of the two forces have a magnitude of
1000 lb? For this condition what will be the angle
between R and the horizontal?
