### Problem Statement
1. **Calculate the reactions at supports A and F of the beam shown below.**

   **Diagram Explanation:**
   - The beam is supported at points A and F.
   - There are two point loads on the beam: 
     - 12 kN at point B located 5 meters from A.
     - 21 kN at point D located 3 meters from B.
   - The distances between supports and loads are as follows:
     - A to B: 5 meters
     - B to D: 3 meters
     - D to F: composed of sections of 4 meters and 4 meters respectively.

2. **Assignment Details**
   - **Course Code:** ES - 110
   - **Homework Number:** 6
   - **Due Date:** 10/19/21

### Additional Problem (Force Analysis)
- A structure is illustrated involving a load and forces:
  - **300 lb** force applied at point D.
  - The structure includes a smooth surface at point A.
  - Forces are considered at various points including vertical (A<sub>V</sub>) and horizontal (A<sub>H</sub>) reactions at A, and a reaction at F (R<sub>F</sub>).
  - Geometric details are included: 
    - Vertical height of 6 units from point D.
    - Horizontal distances of 1 unit, 2 units, 4 units, etc., leading to a trapezoidal arrangement.

### Notes for Analysis
- **Statics principles** are applied to solve for reactions at supports.
- Use equilibrium equations:
  - Sum of vertical forces = 0
  - Sum of horizontal forces = 0
  - Sum of moments about any point = 0

These exercises aim to practice the application of static equilibrium conditions to solve for unknown reactions in structural engineering problems.
