resultant moment about the corner A is 36 Nm
To Find:
A square ABCD of 2 m side is subjected to forces of 10 N, 20 N, 30 N, 40 N and 16√2 N along with AB, AD, CB, CD, and BD.
find their resultant moment about the corner A.
Explanation:
We know that,
moment = force * perpendicular distance
Therefore, force at AB, AD has perpendicular distance 0.
So moment due to force AB, AD is zero.
⇒Let the clockwise direction be positive.
Therefore, moment because of force CB = 30*2 = 60
Since it is anticlockwise, so it is negative.
Thus, Mcb = -60 Nm
moment due of force CD = 40*2 = 80
Since it is clockwise, so it is positive.
Thus, Mcd = 80 Nm
moment due of force BD = 16√2*(1/√2) = 16
Since it is clockwise, so it is positive.
Thus, Mbd = 16 Nm
Hence, total moment = Mcb+Mcd+Mbd = -60 + 80 + 16 = 36 Nm
Hence, resultant moment about the corner A is 36 Nm
