Concept explainers

Buckling of columns

The column is described as a vertical member of the structure that carries an axial compressive load, and buckling is a lateral deformation of the column under the application of load.

Two weights are hung over two frictionless pulleys that are connected by a wire rope to a 500 Ib horizontal block that are in between and below them. The wire rope attached to the upper left end of the block and to the left pulley is at 45 degrees with the horizontal and the wire rope that connects the upper right end of the block to the right pulley is at 30 degrees with the horizontal. If the weight on the left pulley is 50 lb, fs= 0.30 and fk = 0.20 on the surface of block what weight W on the right pulley will cause the 500 lb block to just start moving to the right? *

Neglecting the weight of the bar, compute the force (in N) in the bronze rod caused by the 42563-Nload, using the following data: length of steel = 1.56 m, length of bronze = 2.18 m Area of steel = 563 mm, Area of bronze = 233 mm Modulus of elasticity of steel = 193 Gpa, Modulus of elasticity of bronze = 82 Gpa x = 0.69 m, y = 1.03 m, and z = 0.79 m.
7. A ladder of length 12 m leaning up against a wall makes a 50 degree angle with the ground. The top of the ladder has sliders so that it can slide up and down the wall. Therefore, consider the top of the ladder to be frictionless. The ladder has a weight of 189 N that acts at its center. Someone weighing Fg = 1000 N is 0.92 m vertically below B, but on the ladder. Another person is on the ground holding the ladder by pushing on it horizontally with a force F. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.32, find the horizontal force F that must be applied at a vertical height of 1.2 m to prevent the ladder from slipping. LL F 1.2 m 12 m 50⁰ Fg B .92 m
