Chapter 4, Problem 153P

Find the resultant of the concurrent forces R and S for which the direction is specified by slope, expressed as rise and run values. Show a sketch of R and S and the resultant   R= 8.6(10)^3 N Rise= -3.0 Run= 4.0 S= 6.2(10)^3 N Rise= 3.0 Run= 4.0

Replace the loading by an equivalent resultant force and specify its location on the beam, measured from point B. 800 lb/ft 500 lb/ft A B• -12 ft- -9 ft-

Replace the loading by a single resultant force, specify the location of force measured from point O.
