1. In a room with a ceiling height of 2.6 meter, a 2.5 meter plank is supported by a cable attached to the ceiling and box, as shown in the figure. If the cable is 0.945 meters in length and the height of the box is 0.8 meters, (a) determine the weight of the plank when cable A exerts a force of 100 N. (b) Determine the vertical force (perpendicular to the horizontal ground) exerted by the Box on the plank. Note: Neglect the thickness of the plank A P B

SITUATION 5: The 24-lb homogeneous square plate (i.e. same material & thickness) shown is supported by three vertical wires as shown. Suppose that the distance 'a' is equal to 10 inches. Determine the magnitude of the tension force on the cables at A, B, and C. B 30 in. La 30 in.
In the floor plan below, the rigidities of walls A, B, and C are 1.0. The rigidity of wall D is 1.5. For a force of 100 kips in the horizontal direction, determine the maximum diaphragm shear per unit depth (absolute value). Assume that the center of mass is at the center of the diaphragm. To obtain this answer you will first need to compute the location of the center of rigidity and the force in each wall. 10' 10' A 10' CR D 10' X B

The figure shows three arrangements of a block attached to identical springs that are in their relaxed state when the block is centered as shown. Rank the arrangements according to the magnitude of the net force on the block, largest first, when the block is displaced by distance d(a) to the right and (b) to the left. Rank the arrangements according to the work done on the block by the spring forces, greatest first, when the block is displaced by d (c) to the right and (d) to the left.
