You are holding a thin and weightless bar on your head (see figure 2.1). On the extremity A, the bar is attached to an elastic spring with unstressed length of 1 m ar spring constant, k = 50 N/m; on the other extremity D, the bar is against a wall. On point C, a force F is applied, forming a 45-degree angle with the bar. Assign the length AE according to the height of your body. (a) What is the magnitude of the force F for the bar to rest horizontally? [3 (b) If the force F was removed, what support would you need in D in place of the wall, in order to keep the bar at rest horizontally? Justify your suggestion(s). State and justify your assumptions and comment on your solutions.

The figure shows a bicycle wheel resting against a small step whose height is h = 0.100 m. The weight and radius of the wheel are W = 20.0 N and r = 0.390 m. A horizontal force is applied to the axle of the wheel. As the magnitude of increases, there comes a time when the wheel just begins to rise up and loses contact with the ground. What is the magnitude of the force when this happens? Number Units ✪ F

TEST YOUR UNDERSTANDING! Problem 1 Four wires support the rigid members CD and AB. If a 500-lb load is applied at point I, determine the angle of tilt of AB and the displacement of point A. The members were originally horizontal, each wire has a cross-sectional area of 0.5 in² and E = 29 x 106 psi. (Taken from Hibbeler, 2015) Follow these questions for your solution: 1. Draw the FBDs of bar CD and bar AB. What are the forces in the wires? Problem 2 The horizontal rigid bar is supported by bars A and B and a pin support.
