A thin U-shaped member is kept in equilibrium in the vertical plane by up to three fingers and the cord (gravity acts
downward). The weight of the member is uniformly distributed with 0.1 lb/in. So the total weight is 17.5 lb. Neglect the
thickness of the member and any friction between the fingers and the member. Assume the finger force at G is zero.
Determine the cord force and the other finger forces.
As shown, a roller of weight W and diameter R is pushed to the left over a tile of thickness 6. Consider
the forces acting on the roller when it is in a momentary state of mechanical equilibrium as it rolls over
the sharp corner of the tile.

b Sketch the closed force vector triangle representing the equilibrium condition of this problem. Note
that the vectors drawn in the figure below are not necessarily to scale.
c Express each interior angle of the closed force triangle in terms of a and and clearly label each
force vector in the diagram and each interior angle of the force triangle.
d Establish a relation between a, 6, and r.
e Invoke static equilibrium and apply the law of sines to derive an expression for the force P expressed
in terms of W, r, 6, and 0.
