The hoist consists of a single rope and an arrangement of frictionless pulleys as shown. If...
3. (15 pts) Consider the arrangement of pulleys and blocks shown in the figure below. The pulleys are assumed massless and frictionless and the connecting strings are massless and unstretchable. Denote the respective masses as ma and mß. The uppermost pulley in the figure is free to rotate but its center of mass does not move. All pulleys have the same radius R.

king post 01
The truss shown is called a king-post truss. It is inverted,
such that the structure lies below the plane of the supports. Find
the reactions at the supports and the forces carried in each member
when a force of FF = 14 kN is applied and the dimensions
of the truss are given below.
a = 4.5 m
θ = 58 degrees
ϕ = 56 degrees
Designate members in compression with negative values, and...
The beam ABC has a mass of 78.0 kg and is supported by the rope
BDC that runs through the frictionless pulley at D. The winch at CC
has a mass of 44.5 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...

A mechanical connection known as a clevis and pin is shown. The
dimensions of the assembly are given as:
a = 30 mm
b = 33 mm
c = 10 mm
d = 18 mm
t = 22 mm
W = 45 mm
L = 113 mm
In order to avoid failure in the materials used to create the
parts:
-The normal stress in the pin must be limited to 680 MPa.
-The shearing stress in...
