To receive marks for this question, you must submit a hard copy of your FBD at the end of your test.  

Consider the frame shown in Figure P16.

The frame consists of multiple beams welded together. The frame is supported at four locations shown in the figure:

• Support A is a pin support.
• Support B is a fixed support.
• Support C and D are guided roller supports.

Draw the complete free-body diagram (FBD) of the beam using the following parameters:

• x_1 = 20\,\text{m}, x_2 = 12\,\text{m}, x_3 = 10\,\text{m}
• y_1 = 6\,\text{m}, y_2 = 10\,\text{m}, y_3 = 3\,\text{m}
• F_1 = 20\,\text{kN}
• F_2 = 40\,\text{kN}
• F_3 = 15\,\text{kN}
• w_1 = 3\,\text{kN/m}
• M_1 = 10\,\text{kN}\cdot\text{m}

Instructions

• Show all external loads acting on the beam.
• Include relevant dimensions shown in the figure.
• Label all reaction forces and moments clearly.
• Include a clearly defined coordinate system (x and y axes, and moments).
• Ensure you use the correct numerical values and units where they are provided.
• Do not calculate reactions. 
• Present distributed loads as correctly labelled distributed loads, i.e., do not present or calculate the equivalent point load.

Use the following sign convention:

• Positive x is to the right.
• Positive y is upward.
• Anti-clockwise moments are taken as positive.

Select the correct statement.

Determine the mass of A required to keep the system in equilibrium if block B has a mass of 30 kg? Consider the gravitational acceleration to be g=9.8 m/s². Provide your answer in kg to 4 decimal places.

Determine the mechanical advantage of the following pulley system. The mechanical advantage here is defined as the weight of A divided by the force at B.

Determine the mass of the block required to keep the system in equilibrium if F is 500 N. Consider the gravitational acceleration to be g=9.8 m/s². Provide your answer in kg to 4 decimal places.

Consider the following structure and determine the resultant force (in N) acting at point O to 4 decimal places.

Two forces are applied to the construction bracket as shown. Determine the angle θ (in degrees) to 4 decimal places which makes the resultant of the two forces completely vertical.

Which of the following statements is false for the figure below?

Which of the following equations represents the resultant vector of two forces F_1 and F_2 acting at an angle \theta apart starting from the same origin? i.e. calculate F1 + F2. Refer to the image below for an illustration. Remember that when adding vectors, the tail of one vector needs to connect to the head of another.
