Question

there is a tripod in 2D, left leg is 30degree to vertical and that leg is 100 mm2, vertical leg is 150mm2, right leg is 30 degrees to vertical and is 200 mm2. A load P is pulling the tripod vertically upwards , in which direction can the load P move? All the legs are pinned supported

Step 1

The unit vectors along the legs (from the top joint toward the ground) are: - Left leg: e_L = (-0.5, -0.866) (30° to vertical, leaning left) - Vertical leg: e_V = (0, -1) (vertical) - Right leg: e_R = (0.5, -0.866) (30° to vertical, leaning right) Let the top Show more…
