Problem 3.156: 30 LB 10 LB

1) The problem presents an angle bracket with three forces applied: 10 lb, 30 lb, and 45 lb. It asks to find the resultant force and where it intersects two lines. 2) The solution finds the x and y components of each force, sums them to get the resultant of 34 lb at 28°. 3) It then reduces the system to an equivalent force-couple at point B, found to be R = 34 lb at 28° and MB = -186 lb-in. 4) The force-couple is further reduced to a single force, found to intersect lines AB and BC at 11.64 in left of B and 6.2 in below B,

rectangular components of each force. Adding these components
will yield the components of the resultant.

60o M = 54 lb.in. and the three
forces shown are applied to
A B an angle bracket. (a) Find the
M 8 in resultant of this system of
forces. (b) Locate the points
C where the line of action of the
45 lb
resultant intersects line AB
and line BC.
2. Reduce a force system to a force and a couple at a given point.
The force is the resultant R of the system obtained by adding the
various forces. The couple is the moment resultant of the system
M, obtained by adding the moments about the point of the various
forces.
R=SF M=S(rxF)

60o M = 54 lb.in. and the three
forces shown are applied to
A B an angle bracket. (a) Find the
M 8 in resultant of this system of

C where the line of action of the

resultant intersects line AB
and line BC.
3. Reduce a force and a couple at a given point to a single force.
The single force is obtained by moving the force until its moment
about the point (A) is equal to the couple vector MAR. A position
vector r from the point, to any point on the line of action of the
single force R must satisfy the equation
r x R = MAR

(a) Adding the components of the forces:

S F : R = ( _ 10 j ) + (_ 45 i ) + ( 30 cos 60o i + 30 sin 60o j )

= _ ( 30 lb ) i + ( 15.98 lb ) j

R = 34.0 lb 28.0o

(b) First reduce the given forces and couple to an equivalent


force-couple system (R, MB) at B.

+ S MB : MB = ( 54 lb.in ) + ( 12 in )(10 lb) _ ( 8 in ) ( 45 lb)

= _ 186 lb.in

With R at D:

+ S MB : _
186 lb.in = _ a ( 15.9808 lb) or a = 11.64 in

and with R at E

+ S MB : _
186 lb.in = c ( 30 lb) or c = 6.20 in
The line of action of R intersects line AB 11.64 in. to the left of B
and intersects line BC 6.20 in below B.
