A 3-meter steel bar has a mass of 30 kg rests on two inclined planes as shown in the figure. The mass center is 1.2 meter from one end as shown. Both ends are provided with frictionless rollers. 1.8 m 1.2 m | 30 kg 25 deg 40 deg (a) Calculate the angle "x" which the bar makes with the horizontal to be in equilibrium. (b) Calculate the reaction at point A. (c) Calculate the reaction at point B.
