Solve for the support reactions at A and B in figure 3.8 and 3.9.
![### Support Reactions Problems
#### Problem Statement:
For Problems 3.8 through 3.10, solve for the support reactions at points A and B.
---
#### Problem 3.8
**Diagram:**
- A simply supported beam is depicted with:
- A pin support at point A.
- A roller support at point B, located 12 feet from point A (6 feet between A & a point denoted as 'O', and another 6 feet from 'O' to B).
- Loads acting on the beam:
- A concentrated load of 1000 pounds (lb) acting 6 feet from point A.
- A uniformly distributed load \( w = 300 \frac{\text{lb}}{\text{ft}} \) spanning 6 feet from the point of the concentrated load to the right end of the beam.
---
#### Problem 3.9
**Diagram:**
- A simply supported beam is shown with:
- A pin support at point A.
- A roller support at point B, located 5 meters from point A (3 meters between A & B, and another 2 meters extending from B to point C at the far right end).
- Loads acting on the beam:
- A uniformly distributed load \( w = 15 \frac{\text{kN}}{\text{m}} \) over the 4 meters segment from A to B.
---
### Instructions for Solving:
To solve for the support reactions at points A and B for both problems:
1. **Equilibrium Equations:**
Utilize static equilibrium equations for each beam:
- \(\sum F_y = 0\) (Sum of vertical forces must be zero)
- \(\sum M_A = 0\) or \(\sum M_B = 0\) (Sum of moments about any point must be zero)
2. **Free Body Diagrams:**
Draw the Free Body Diagram (FBD) of each beam isolating them from the supports.
3. **Resultant Forces:**
Calculate the resultant forces of the distributed loads.
4. **Support Reactions:**
Solve for the unknown support reactions at the pin and roller supports, usually resulting in a system of linear equations.
By using these steps, one can determine the magnitude of the reactions at the supports A and B for the given load conditions on the beams.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F4ec45086-8540-448a-8175-f3c58b1b51d8%2F0401e3ed-aed5-4569-9f53-2162f70c3345%2Fevdh85c_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
