Question

Please include FBD (Free Body Diagram), EoE (Equations of Equilibrium) and all that apply on the list attached (System, Parameters, Assumptions, Tasks, Governing Relations, and of course the Solutions)

P1-4. Determine the internal normal force at section A if the rod is subjected to the external uniformally distributed loading along its length of 8 kN/m 8 kN/m

Answer 1

Along its length of = 8 KN/m Draw the free body diagram of the beam, NA = 24 KN Apply equations of equilibrium for the beam sigma F_x = 0 NA - 8 times 3 = 0 NA = 24 KN therefore the normal reaction at point A its 24 KN.
