Problem Solving 2: Cantilever
The figure shows a uniform beam (m = 1200 kg)
that extends beyond its support like a diving
board. Such a beam is called a cantilever. The
forces acting on the beam are those due to the
supports, and the force of gravity which acts at
the CG, 5.0 m to the right of the right-hand
support. Calculate FA and FB.
