Practice Problem #3) The figure depicts a structural system with a beam subjected to a 20 kN force applied at an angle of 30° from the vertical at point A. The beam is supported by a fixed support at point B and extends horizontally for 4 meters between points A and B, with point A located 3 meters below the applied load.
2. Block A is being pushed up the side of a wall. Kinematics dictates that motion can only be in the y-direction. The block is observed to be accelerating upward at 4 m/s² while the forces shown on the drawing are applied. Some clever engineers made a free-body diagram (below). a. What is the mass of the block? b. What is the normal force, N, that the wall is applying to the block? c. What is the friction force, Fr, that the wall is applying to the block?

Pretend you're designing a 2 story building. See the drawing below. You decide how tall to make each of the two floors (i.e. decide on the value of h). Let's just say that there are horizontal forces F₁ and F2 and each has a magnitude equal to its height off the ground times 2 kips. These may be a combination of earthquake and wind forces. For example, if you let h = 6 ft., then F₂ = 12 x 2 kips = 24 kips (an unrealistic load, but just for the sake of argument, go with it). Notice that the roof is a kind of "saltbox" style. There's a 500 lb. snow load acting perpendicular to the longer slope. The steeper slope has no snow load as we assume that it'll all slide off. Replace this loading system with an equivalent force and couple moment acting at point O, the midpoint of the building's base. F₁ F₂ 500 LB. 20' O * 10' * 10' * 10' h h
