Question
### Bell-Crank Mechanism Analysis
The bell-crank mechanism exhibited is in equilibrium under the application of a load \( F_1 = 10 \, \text{kN} \) exerted at point A. The parameters for the mechanism are:

- \( a = 300 \, \text{mm} \)
- \( b = 110 \, \text{mm} \) 
- \( c = 80 \, \text{mm} \)
- \( \theta = 70^\circ \)

The pin at point B has:
- Diameter \( d = 12 \, \text{mm} \)
- Ultimate shear strength = 450 MPa

Both the bell crank and the support bracket exhibit an ultimate bearing strength of 575 MPa.

#### Task:
Determine the following factors of safety:
1. **(a)** The factor of safety in pin B with respect to ultimate shear strength.
2. **(b)** The factor of safety in the bell crank at pin B with respect to ultimate bearing strength.
3. **(c)** The factor of safety in the support bracket with respect to ultimate bearing strength.

**Graphical Explanation:**
The problem includes two illustrations:
1. **Mechanism Diagram:** 
   - A schematic shows the bell-crank mechanism with forces \( F_1 \) and \( F_2 \) and its dimensions \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \).
   - The angles \(\theta = 70^\circ\) and \(30^\circ\) are indicated to show the directions of forces with respect to different segments of the mechanism.
   
2. **Connection Detail:**
   - The diagram zooms in on point B, detailing how the pin is mounted and connected between the brackets.
   - It shows the pin having a diameter \( d = 12 \, \text{mm} \) and specifies that the connection involves an 8 mm thickness and two 6 mm brackets making the connection.

Below the problem statement and diagrams, text boxes are provided for entering the calculated factors of safety for each of the criteria above. 

#### Answers:

1. **(a) Factor of Safety in Pin B with Respect to Shear Strength:**
   - **Input box for FS_B (shear strength):** This box will be used to enter the calculated factor of safety for the shearing force on pin B.
   
2. **(b
