1 Moments Mixed exercise 4 1 a The plank is in equilibrium. Let the reaction forces at the supports be R and R D. Considering moments about point D: R ( ) = ( ) (3 1.5) 3.5R = R = R = 105 The support at exerts a force of 105 N on the plank. b The plank is in equilibrium. Resolving vertically: R + R = c R D D = RD = 140 The support at D exerts a force of 140 N on the plank. F When the plank is on the point of tilting, the new reaction force at support, R = 0 N and plank is again in equilibrium. The child stands a distance x m from support D. Considering moments about point D: (3 1.5) The distance DF is 1.03 m. Pearson Education Ltd Copying permitted for purchasing institution only. This material is not copyright free. 1
