Solution
Problem 5.27
The front view of one of the wings of a Cessna 172 airplane is shown. The
wing is supported by a pin-connected strut
BE
and by a connection at
A
that
may be idealized as a pin. The plane’s mass, including fuel, passengers, and
cargo, is
1000 kg
, and it flies so that it is in static equilibrium. The strut
BE
has
negligible mass, and the wing
ABCD
has
200 kg
mass with center of gravity
at point
B
. Model the wing as a two-dimensional structure where all forces lie
in the same plane.

Problem 5.28
The automobile shown has
1200 kg
mass with center of gravity at point
G
, and
all wheels have the same
0:34
m radius. If the automobile has rear wheel drive,
determine the reactions at each pair of wheels when the automobile just begins
to slowly drive over the curb in front of it at point C.
Problem 5.29
Repeat Prob. 5.28 if the automobile has front wheel drive.
Solution
In the FBD for the automobile, note that when the vehicle begins to drive over the curb that
AyD0
. Point
D
is a convenient location to sum moments because the line of action of force
Cn
passes through this point,
hence it produces no moment about point
D
. Also, the moment arm for force
Ct
is easy to obtain (it is 0.34
Problem 5.30
A sliding screen door for a house or apartment is shown. The door has rollers
at points
A

B
are a loose fit, and the rollers
C

are a loose fit. The door weighs
90
N with center of gravity at point
G
. The rollers are frictionless, but when the door slides to the right, horizontal
forces
FtD10
N and
FbD40
N arise due to friction from the weather sealing
along the top and bottom of the door. To slide the door to the right, a person
applies the horizontal force Pat point E.
