Question 1 

For the frame shown below, 

1) Find the reactions at A and E. 
2) Draw the axial force, shear force and bending moment diagrams for the frame, showing the magnitude of all peak values.

Question 2 

Calculate the reactions at B and F and draw the axial force, shear force and bending moment diagrams for the frame shown below. 

Question 5 

For the section shown below, 

1) Find the coordinates of the centroid, xc and yc. 
2) Calculate the second moment of inertia Ix´ at the centroid. 

Note: all dimensions are in mm

Question 6

Particles A and B are travelling in the anticlockwise direction around a circular track at a speed of 8 m/s at the instant shown. If the speed of B is increased by 𝑑𝑣? /𝑑? = 4 𝑚/?2, and at the same instant, A has an increase in speed 𝑑𝑣? /𝑑? = 0.8? 𝑚/?2 . Determine the time when the first collision occurs, the magnitudes of accelerations 𝑎?of particle A and 𝑎? of particle B just before the first collision occurs.

Question 7 

For the system shown, the crank AB has a constant clockwise angular velocity of 2000 rpm. The length of the crank AB and the connecting rod BC is 75mm and 200mm, respectively. When α is 40°, determine the angular velocity 𝜔??of rod BC, the velocity 𝑣?and acceleration 𝑎? of point C

Question 8

The flexible band F is attached at E to the rotating sector and leads over the guide pulley. The band has a constant velocity of 4 m/s. 

1) Determine the angular velocities of AD and BD for the position shown. 
2) For the instant when BD is perpendicular to OA, determine the angular acceleration of BD.
