As part of a check on its design, a lower A-arm (part of an automobile suspension) is supported by bear- ings at A and B and subjected to the pair of 900-N forces at C and D. The suspension spring, not shown for clarity, exerts a force Fs at E as shown, where E is in plane ABCD. Determine the magnitude Fs of the spring force and the magnitudes F, and Fg of the bearing forces at A and B which are perpendicu- lar to the hinge axis AB.

3/83 As part of a check on its design, a lower A-arm (part
of an automobile suspension) is supported by bear-
ings at A and B and subjected to the pair of 900-N
forces at C and D. The suspension spring, not shown
for clarity, exerts a force Fs at E as shown, where E
is in plane ABCD. Determine the magnitude Fs of
the spring force and the magnitudes FA and Fg of
the bearing forces at A and B which are perpendicu-
lar to the hinge axis AB.
