670



Chapter 7

Units Used: 3

kN = 10 N Given: L = 9m V max = 5 kN Mmax = 2 kN⋅ m

Solution: The shear force is zero everywhere in the beam. The moment is zero in the first third and the last third of the bam. In the middle section of the beam the moment is

M = M0

M0 = Mmax

Thus the beam will fail when

M0 = 2.00 kN⋅ m

Problem 11-51 The uniform bar AB has weight W. If the attached spring is unstretched when θ = 90 deg, use the principle of potential energy and determine the angle θ for equilibrium. Investigate the stability of the equilibrium positions. Note that the spring always remains in the vertical position due to the roller guide. Given: W = 10 lb k = 5

Problem 11-52 The punch press consists of the ram R, connecting rod AB, and a flywheel. If a torque M is applied to the flywheel, determine the force F applied at the ram to hold the rod in the position θ = θ0. Given: M = 50 N⋅ m

θ 0 = 60 deg r = 0.1 m a = 0.4 m Solution:

θ = θ0
