The forklift shown in the figure supports a 20-slug motor.Determine the follow:- The force exerted on the element BD, and indicate if it is in tension or compression- The force exerted by the hydraulic cylinder H
The light boom AB is attached to a vertical wall by a ball and socket joint at A and supported by two cables at B. A force P is applied at B where P = 18i - 15j kN.Note that the reaction force at A acts along the boom because it is a two-force member. Calculate the magnitude of the reaction force at A in kN.
The dual-grip clamp shown in the figure is used to provide added clamping force with a positive action. If the vertical screw is tightened to produce a clamping force of 3.7 kN and then the horizontal screw is tightened until the force in the screw at A is doubled, find the total reaction R on the pin at B.
