Problem 7.11
The door is at rest when the man
M
starts pushing it to the right
with a constant horizontal force of
40 lb
. If the weight of the door
is
300 lb
, its width and height are both
`D10 ft
, its center of
mass
G
is at its geometric center, and the man pushes at a height
hD4ft
, determine the speed of the door after it has moved
10 ft
and determine the reactions at the rollers Aand B.
