Problem 260
The effect of a certain non-concurrent force system is defined by the following data: ΣFx = +90 kN, ΣFy = -60 kN, and ΣMO = 360 kN·m counterclockwise. Determine the point at which the resultant intersects the x-axis.
Problem 258
Replace the system of forces shown in Fig. P-258 by an equivalent force through O and a couple acting through A and B. Solve if the forces of the couple are (a) horizontal and (b) vertical.
Problem 251
A vertical force P at A and another vertical force F at B in Fig. P-251 produce a resultant of 100 lb down at D and a counterclockwise couple C of 200 lb·ft. Find the magnitude and direction of forces P and F.
Problem 243
The resultant of three parallel loads (one is missing in Fig. P-243) is 13.6 kg acting up at 3 m to the right of A. Compute the magnitude and position of the missing load.
Problem 242
Find the value of P and F so that the four forces shown in Fig. P-242 produce an upward resultant of 300 lb acting at 4 ft from the left end of the bar.
