Question 1: Replace the force and couple system by an equivalent force and couple moment
at point O.
loading system
Question 2: Replace the three forces acting on the beam by a single resultant force. Specify
where the force acts, Measured from end A.
Question 3: The uniform beam has a mass of 50 kg per meter of length. Compute the reactions
at the support O. The force loads shown lie in a vertical plane.

Question 4: The three-wheel truck is used to carry the 100-kg box as shown. Calculate the
changes in the normal force reactions at the three wheels due to the weight of the box.
Question 5: Each of the three uniform 1200-mm bars has a mass of 20 kg. The bars are welded
together into the configuration shown and suspended by three vertical wires. Bars AB and BC
lie in the horizontal x-y plane, and the third bar lies in a plane parallel to the x-z plane. Compute
the tension in each wire.

Question 6: Determine the force in each member of the loaded truss. Make use of the symmetry
of the truss and of the loading.
Question 7: A drawbridge is being raised by a cable EI. The four joint loadings shown result
from the weight of the roadway. Determine the forces in members EF, DE, DF, CD, and FG.
