a 200-kg engine is suspended from a vertical chain at A. A second chain is wrapped around the engine and held in position by the spreader bar BC. Determine the compressive force acting along the axis of the bar and the tension forces in segments BA and CA of the chain. Hint: Analyze equilibrium first at A, then at B.
A blog where I post solutions to the mechanics and statics problems that I encounter. Also many mastering engineering problems will be seen, so users of that program may find this blog interesting. The course uses the Hibbeler Statics textbook and some of the subjects covered include: Cartesian vectors, force resultants, force equilibrium, particle equilibrium, Hooke's Law, vector decomposition, etc. More to be added as those problems and topics are encountered.
