Chapter 19, Problem 9ICA
Write a program using if-elseif-else statements that displays a menu of traffic light colors (green, yellow, red). Depending on which button is pressed, the user should then be told to continue, slow, or stop. If the user closes the menu without making a selection, the user should be told to stop.

applied if the pin at D can support a maximum force of
18000 N. Also determine the reactions at A and C
and express each answer in Cartesian components. Assume
the masses of both beam and member ✓ are

- The beam ABC has a mass of 79.0 kg and is supported by the rope BDC that runs through the frictionless pulley at D . The winch at C has a mass of 36.5 kg. The tension in the rope acts on the beam at points B and C and counteracts the moments due to the beam's weight (acting vertically at the midpoint of its length) and the weight of the winch (acting vertically at point C) such that the resultant moment about point A is equal to zero. Assume that rope segment CD is vertical and note that rope segment BD is NOT necessarily perpendicular to the beam. a.) Compute the tension in the rope. b.) Model the two forces the rope exerts on the beam as a single equivalent force and couple moment acting at point B. Enter your answer in Cartesian components. c.)

- The heated rod from Problem 3 is subject to a volumetric heating h(x) = h0 x L in units of [Wm−3], as shown in the figure below. Under the heat supply the temperature of the rod changes along x with the temperature function T (x). The temperature T (x) is governed by the d following equations: − dx (q(x)) + h(x) = 0 PDE q(x) =−k dT dx Fourier’s law of heat conduction (4) where q(x) is the heat flux through the rod and k is the (constant) thermal conductivity. Both ends of the bar are in contact with a heat reservoir at zero temperature. Determine: 1. Appropriate BCs for this physical problem. 2. The temperature function T (x). 3. The heat flux function q(x). Side Note: Please see that both ends of bar are in contact with a heat reservoir at zero temperature so the boundary condition at the right cannot be du/dx=0 because its not thermally insulated. Thank youarrow_forwardThe elastic bar from Problem 1 spins with angular velocity ω about an axis, as shown in the figure below. The radial acceleration at a generic point x along the bar is a(x) = ω2x. Under this radial acceleration, the bar stretches along x with displacement function u(x). The displacement d u(x) is governed by the following equations: dx (σ(x)) + ρa(x) = 0 PDE σ(x) = E du dx Hooke’s law (2) where σ(x) is the axial stress in the rod, ρ is the mass density, and E is the (constant) Young’s modulus. The bar is pinned on the rotation axis at x = 0 and it is also pinned at x = L. Determine: 1. Appropriate BCs for this physical problem. 2. The displacement function u(x). 3. The stress function σ(x). SIDE QUESTION: I saw a tutor solve it before but I didn't understand why the tutor did not divide E under the second term (c1x) before finding u(x).
