Concept explainers
Each of the two members is made from 6061-T6 aluminum and has a square cross section 1 in. × 1 in. They are pin connected at their ends and a jack is placed between them and opened until the force it exerts on each member is 50 lb. Determine the greatest force P that can be applied to the center of the top member without causing either of the two members to yield. For the analysis neglect the axial force in each member. Assume the jack is rigid.

- The 41-lbrectangular access door is held in the 90° open position by the single prop CD. Determine the force Fin the prop and the magnitude of the force normal to the hinge axis AB in each of the small hinges A and B. Assume a= 22 in., b= 36 in., c- 13 in., d= 49 in. Answers: F= Ib A- Ib B- Ibarrow_forwardThe torsional spring at B is undeformed when bars OB and BD are both in the vertical position and overlap. If a force F is required to position the bars at a steady orientation θ = 64°, determine the torsional spring stiffness kT. The slot at C is smooth, and the weight of the bars is negligible. In this configuration, the pin at C is positioned at the midpoint of the slotted bar.arrow_forwardI need the answer for this question, I have an exam right nowarrow_forward
