A toggle clamp is used to apply a friction pad to a flywheel mounted at O, as illustrated below. The coefficient of static friction between the friction pad at A and the flywheel is 0.4. The radius of the flywheel is 6 in. For a torque of M = 28 in-lbs applied to the flywheel, determine the force F that must be applied to the handle of the toggle clamp to prevent the flywheel from rotating. Also, determine the internal loads, which include the normal force, N, the shear force, V, and the bending moment, M, at location G of the toggle clamp arm and at location H of the toggle clamp handle. For the online quiz, submit your answer for the shear force, V, at location G of the toggle clamp arm. 2.75 in, -10 in- 4 in 6 in H M A 4 in G 1.2 in 1.2 in 30° F 30° 12 in E
