magnitude and direction of the resultant force. 6-Marks CO2 PO2
L3
4. a) A horizontal cylinder of weight 240 kN is held against a wall with the help of CO2 PO2 L3
string as shown in Fig. The string makes an angle 20° with the wall. Determine
the reaction of the wall and tension induced in the string. 5-Marks

b) Determine tension in strings AB, BC, CD and force P in fig. 5-Marks CO2 PO2
L3
a) A body of weight 500 kN is placed on a smooth plane inclined at 30° with CO2 PO2
5. L3
the horizontal as shown in Fig. horizontal force 600 kN is applied on a body in
such a way that net resultant force of the force system acts parallel to the
incline plane. Determine normal reaction in inclined plane and net resultant
force. 5-Marks

b) Determine the resultant & its location of the four non-concurrent, nonparallel
forces shown in Fig. The coordinates are in meters. 5-Marks CO2 PO2
