Determine the value of x from the following equation:
$\dfrac{1}{x} + \dfrac{1}{x + 2} = 1$
Problem 916
For the structure shown in Figure P-916 is hinged to fixed supports at A and E. Compute the maximum compressive stress developed in bar BDE if its cross section is 200 mm square. Neglect the weights of the members.
Please help to solve this problem:
The angle of elevation of a point C from a point B is 29042'; the angle of elevation of C from another point A 31.2 m directly below B is 59023'. How high is C from the horizontal line through A?
Problem 915
For the structure in Problem 914, compute the maximum tensile stress developed in bar CB.
Problem 914
The structure shown in Figure P-914 is hinged to fixed is hinged to fixed supports at A and C. Assume that the pin connections at A, B, and C are frictionless. The bars are each 4 in. by 4 in. in section. Compute the maximum compressive stress developed in bar AD.
Problem
