WORKSHOP ONE

1- Knowing that∝=40° , determine the resultant of


the three forces shown.(Beer, Johnston, Mazurek, &
Eisenberg, 2013)

2- A frame ABC is supported in part by cable DBE


that passes through a frictionless ring at B.
Knowing that the tension in the cable is 385 N,
determine the components of the force exerted by
the cable on the support at D. (Beer et al., 2013)

3- The two structural members, one of which is in tension


and the other in compression, exert the indicated forces on
joint O. Determine the magnitude of the resultant R of the 4
two forces and the angle θ which R makes with the positive 3
30
x-axis.(Meriam & Kraige, 2006) x

4- Two forces are applied to the construction bracket as shown. Determine the angle θ
which makes the resultant of the two forces vertical. Determine the magnitude R of the
resultant.(Beer et al., 2013)

5- A container is supported by three cables that are attached to a ceiling as shown.


Determine the weight W of the container, knowing that the tension in cable AB is 6 kN.
(Beer et al., 2013)
