Q1. A 50 lb beam is supported by a pin support and a spring. If the original length of the spring is 2 ft, determine the magnitude of the force need to be applied at point B and the horizontal and vertical reactions at A to hold the beam in a horizontal position. (hint: What is the length of the spring now if the beam is in a horizontal position?) 3 ft A k = 100 lb/ft mmmmmmm 3 ft F B
