Step 1

First, let's calculate the magnitude of the resultant force. We have a distributed load of 30 N/m over a length of 4m. So the total load on the beam is 30 N/m * 4m = 120 N. Show more…

Q.2 Determine the magnitude and the location of the resultant of the parallel force system given below. The force system acts on the horizontal beam AB, and all forces are vertical. The load intensity of the distributed load w = 30 N/m. Draw the load diagram with the distributed load replaced by its resultant, and find the resultant of the force system and its location, neglecting the weight of the beam. 50N W = 30 N/m 4m 2m
