1. The man exerts a force \( P=50 \) it on the handles of the wheelbarrow. Knowing that the resultant of the forces \( \mathrm{P}, \mathrm{Q} \) (the reaction at the wheel), and \( W \) (weight of the wheelbarrow) is the force \( R=10^{\text {i }} \mathrm{lb} \), detectrine W. Ans. \( 79.2721 \mathrm{lb} \)

Step 1
The forces are: - \( P = 50 \, \text{lb} \) (force exerted by the man) - \( Q \) (reaction at the wheel) - \( W \) (weight of the wheelbarrow) Show more…

The man exerts a force P of magnitude 50 lb on the handles of the wheelbarrow. Knowing that the resultant of the forces P, Q (the reaction at the wheel), and W (the weight of the wheelbarrow) is the force R = 10 i lb, determine W.

Pushing a Wheelbarrow A man pushes a wheelbarrow up an incline of $20^{\circ}$ to the ground with a force of 100 lb. Represent graphically this force.

Determine the magnitude $P$ and direction $\theta$ of the force required to impart a rearward acceleration $a=5 \mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{sec}^{2}$ to the loaded wheelbarrow with no rotation from the position shown. The combined weight of the wheelbarrow and its load is $500 \mathrm{lb}$ with center of gravity at $G .$ Compare the normal force at $B$ under acceleration with that for static equilibrium in the position shown. Neglect the friction and mass of the wheel.
