As a special case, if the three forces are all parallel, the location of
the point of intersection, O, will approach infinity.
Example 5.13
The lever ABC is pin supported at A and connected to a
short link BD as shown in Fig. 5–22a. If the weight of the
members is negligible, determine the force of the pin on
the lever at A
SOLUTION
Problem 5-16
Determine the tension in the cable and the horizontal and
vertical components of reaction of the pin A. The pulley at D
is frictionless and the cylinder weighs 80 lb.
Problem 5-19
The man has a weight W and stands at the center of the plank.
If the planes at A and B are smooth, determine the tension in
the cord in terms of W and θ
Problem 5-25
Determine the reactions on the bent rod which is supported
by a smooth surface at B and by a collar at A, which is fixed to
the rod and is free to slide over the fixed inclined rod.
Problem 5-42
The boom supports the two vertical loads. Neglect the size of the
collars at D and B and the thickness of the boom, and compute
the horizontal and vertical components of force at the pin A and
the force in cable CB. Set F1 = 800 N and F2 = 350 N.

Support Reactions
A force is developed by a support that restricts the
translation of its attached member.
A couple moment is developed when rotation of the
