The hand brake for a bicycle is shown. Portions DE and FG are free to rotate on bolt A which is screwed into the frame BC of the bicycle. The brake is actuated by a shielded cable where T1 is applied to point E and T2 is applied to point G. A spring having 40 N compressive force is placed between points E and G so that the brake stays open when it is not being used. Assume the change in the spring's force is negligible when the brake is actuated to produce the F = 100 N forces at points D and F. Determine the necessary cable forces T1 in N.
The bars shown are the same length. The spring is unstretched when alpha= 90°; the horizontal surface is smooth. For what value of a between 0 and 90° will the system remain in equilibrium?
The necessary and sufficient conditions for a rigid body to be in balance are:
1)The sum of all forces must be null;
2)The sum of all moments must be null;
3)The sum of all forces in two directions and the sum of the moments must be null;
4)The sum of all forces and the sum of moments must be null.
which one is correct?
