Question
**Problem Statement:** The beam is supported by a pin at A. Determine the moment (in N·m) at A with respect to P = 9 N. (Counterclockwise (CCW) is positive). **Diagram Explanation:** The diagram shows a horizontal beam with four vertical loads acting downward on it. These forces are labeled based on a variable \( P \): - The first force is \( P \) acting 0.5 meters from the left end of the beam. - The second force is \( 4P \) acting 1 meter from the first force. - The third force is \( 4P \) again, and it acts 1.5 meters from the second force. - The fourth force is \( 2P \) acting 1.5 meters from the third force, and 0.5 meters from the right end of the beam. The beam is supported by a pin at point A, located at its left end. The goal is to determine the moment at point A considering that \( P = 9 \) N and that counterclockwise moments are considered positive.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Fixed Support: It is the type of support which provides the resistive moment to the applied load.

Hinged/Pin Support: It is the type of support that does not provide the resistive moment to the applied load.
