The lid of a roof scuttle weighs 75 lb. It is hinged at corners A and B and maintained in the desired position by a rod CD pivoted at C; a pin at end D of the rod fits into one of several holes drilled in the edge of the lid. For α=50°, determine (a) the magnitude of the force exerted by rod CD, (b) the reactions at the hinges. Assume that the hinge at B does not exert any axial thrust.
The press shown below is used to emboss a small metal plate at E. The press is composed
of 3 members: handle ABC, link BD, and piston DE that are connected by pins at points A,
B. and D. A vertical force of
250 N is applied at point C. Determine:
(a) The vertical component of the force
exerted on the plate at E and the
reactions at pin A.
(b) The mechanical advantage of the
press.
