The ramp of a ship has a weight of F Ib acts in the center of gravity at G. The ramp is supported by a pin at point "A" and a smooth surface on "B". If the ramp was in equilibrium, answer the following questions: a. Draw the free body diagram of the ramp AB. b. Determine the cable force at C that is needed to lift the ramp (that makes the reaction at B equals to Zero). c. Determine the horizontal and vertical components of reaction at pin A.

Transcribed Image Text:The ramp of a ship has a weight of F Ib acts in the center of gravity at G. The ramp is supported
by a pin at point "A" and a smooth surface on "B".
If the ramp was in equilibrium, answer the following questions:
a. Draw the free body diagram of the ramp AB.
b. Determine the cable force at C that is needed to lift the ramp (that makes the reaction
at B equals to Zero).
c. Determine the horizontal and vertical components of reaction at pin A.
Take the values of F (kN), a (deg) and X (m) from Table 1.
F(N)=100
P(lb)=840
X(m)=4
a(dag)=20
