A loading car, as given in figure, is at rest on a track forming an angle of 25 with the vertical. The gross weight of the car and its load is 5500 lb. and it is applied at a point 30 in. from the track, halfway between the two axles. The car is held by a cable attached 24 in. from the track. Determine the tension in the cable and the reaction at each pair of wheels.
Q3. The boom AB lies in the vertical y-z plane and is supported by a ball-and-socket joint (pin support) at B and by the two cables at A. Calculate the tension in each cable resulting from the X kN force acting in the horizontal plane and applied at the midpoint M of the boom. Also determine the support reactions at B. Neglect the weight of the boom. (Hint: A ball-and-socket joint provides reaction forces in all three directions, but no moment). 3 m A 20° X kN M T1, 10 m m 4 m 4 m 2 m C

The bent rod in Fig. a is supported at A by a journal bearing, at D by a ball-and-socket joint, and at B by means of cable BC. Using only one equilibrium equation, obtain a direct solution for the tension in cable BC. The bearing at A is capable of exerting force components only in the z and y directions since it is properly aligned on the shaft. In other words, no couple moments are required at this support. 1m B. 0.5 m Free-Body Diagram. As shown in Fig. b, there are six unknowns 05 m Equations of Equilibrium. The cable tension Tg may be obtained directly by summing moments about an axis that passes through points D and A. Why? 00 kg (a) Since the moment arms from the axis to T, and W are easy to obtain, we can determine this result using a scalar analysis.
