A beam ACB is supported by a collar at A and rest on a smooth surface at B. The collar is fixed to the rod and is free to slide over the fixed inclined rod. The beam is subjected to point force PC = 10 kips and distributed forces acting on the span AC as shown in the figure. The maximum magnitude of the distributed force is wo = 2 kips/ft. a. Draw the freebody diagram of the beam ACB. b. Calculate the reactions at A and B. Please neglect the depth/thickness of the beam. Length of AC is 10 ft, Length of CB is 3 ft
