Please note of the following reminders:Always show diagrams where necessary. Eg. you're using a dimension, say x1, in calculating a moment. draw the diagram that shows what x1 is. For equilibrium problems this should be in the form of the free body diagram.Show your solutions, no shortcuts.For forces/moments, show in the final answer the direction of the force (use arrows) and moments ( CW/CCW or arrows). you can also just indicate +/- if you indicate the positive sense in the beginning of the solutions. Also don't forget units and box/underline the final answer. 4.88 Rod AB is bent into the shape of an are of circle and is lodgedbetween two pegs D and E. It supports a load P at end B. Neglect-ing friction and the weight of the rod, determine the distance ccorresponding to equilibrium when a = 20 mm and R = 100 mm.AR.DaFig. P4.88

Show your solutions, no shortcuts.
For forces/moments, show in the final answer the direction of the force (use arrows) and moments ( CW/CCW or arrows). you can also just indicate +/- if you indicate the positive sense in the beginning of the solutions. Also don't forget units and box/underline the final answer.
