Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 5: Beam Analysis**
**Objective:**
For the beam loaded as shown, supported by a pin at A and the cord BC:
1. Draw the Free Body Diagram for the beam.
2. Determine the support reactions and tension in the cord necessary for equilibrium. Assume \( F = 50 \, \text{kN} \). Neglect the thickness of the beam.
**Diagram Description:**
The diagram shows a beam supported at point A and a cord at BC. Forces acting on the beam include a vertical force labeled 26 kN at point F, inclined forces, and the reactions at point A, represented as \( A_x \) and \( A_y \).
**Calculations:**
- **Horizontal Equilibrium (\( \Sigma F_x = 0 \))**:
- \( A_x = \frac{26 \times 5}{13} = 10 \, \text{kN} \)
- **Vertical Equilibrium (\( \Sigma F_y = 0 \))**:
- \( A_y - 26 \times \frac{12}{13} - F_B \times \frac{3}{5} = 0 \)
- \( A_y = 26 \times \frac{12}{13} + 50 \times \frac{3}{5} = 45 \, \text{kN} \, \uparrow \)
- **Reaction at B (\( B_y \))**:
- \( B_y = -50 \times \frac{3}{5} = -30 \, \text{kN} \)
- Corrected to \( B_y = 30 \, \text{kN} \, \downarrow \)
- **Horizontal Component at B (\( B_x \))**:
- \( B_x = 50 \times \frac{4}{5} = 40 \, \text{kN} \)
**Final Reactions:**
- \( A_x = 10 \, \text{kN} \, \rightarrow \)
- \( A_y = 45 \, \text{kN} \, \uparrow \)
- \( B_x = 40 \, \text{kN} \, \rightarrow \)
- \( B_y = 30 \, \text{kN} \, \downarrow \)
