Q.2) The windlass is supported by a thrust bearing at A and a smooth journal bearing at B, which are
properly aligned on the shaft. Determine the magnitude of the vertical force P that must be applied to the
handle to maintain the equilibrium of the 100kg bucket. Also, calculate the reactions at the bearings.
Since the bearings at A and B are aligned correctly, only force reactions occur at these supports.
