Principles of Mechanics – Calculate the reaction force and the force exerted
6 b please
this was my answer which was incorrect
QUESTION SIX PART B
B) TAKING MOMENT AT A
AS WE KNOW THAT
M = F X D , M-MOMENT, F-FORCE, D -DISTANCE
ALL FORCES MUST BE PARALLEL
-WX2+(14XRB)
(-510.12X2)+(14X77.875)
(70.01)NM DOWNWARD
MOMENT AT B
(RAX14)-(WX12)
6121.36-1020.24= 5101NM
