4.26 Para el marco y las

cargas mostradas en la
figura, determine las
reacciones en A y E cuando
a) a=2 y b) a= 7.5
RESPUESTAS:

a). RA=271.lb RE=3.57Lb

b). RA=26.6Lb. RE=21Lb.

4.84 A slender rod of length L is attached to collars that can slide freely along the guides
shown. Knowing that the rod is in equilibrium, derive an expression for the angle in
terms of the angle .
4.85 An 8-kg slender rod of length L is attached to
collars that can slide freely along the guides shown.
Knowing that the rod is in equilibrium and that
=30, determine (a) the angle that the rod
forms with the vertical, (b) the reactions at A and B.
RESPUESTAS.
4.84 tan= 2 tan .
4.85 (a) =49.1. (b) RA= 45.3 N; RB= 90.6 N

4.89 A slender rod of length L and weight W is attached to a

collar at A and is fitted with a small wheel at B. Knowing that
the wheel rolls freely along a cylindrical surface of radius R,
and neglecting friction, derive an equation in , L, and R that
must be satisfied when the rod is in equilibrium.
4.90 Knowing that for the rod of Prob. 4.89, L= 15 in., R=20
in., and W=10 lb, determine (a) the angle corresponding to
equilibrium, (b) the reactions at A and B.
4.90 (a) =59.4. (b) RA= 8.45 lb y; RB=13.09 lb
