Assume that the hydraulic cylinder AB exerts a force F of constant magnitude 680 lb as the bin is elevated. Determine and plot the moment of this force about the point O for the range 0 to 90 degrees. Draw the plot and then answer the questions.
To:
OB = 7.0 ft
θ = 1.6 degrees
Answers:
If = 38.1507.939443 lb-ft
If6 = 75 lb-ft
M = 1115.193355 lb-ft
The maximum moment is M = 1115.193355 lb-ft.
