The machine shown is used to help load luggage into airliners. The combined mass of the conveyor and luggage is 155 kg with mass
center at G. Determine and plot the force in the hydruaulic cylinder BC (report your answer as a positive value) as a function of $\theta$ over
the range $3^\circ \le \theta \le 32^\circ$, then answer the questions.
Assume DE = 2010 mm, CD = 1370 mm, c = 1690 mm, d = 1070 mm, e = 450 mm, f = 2300 mm.
Questions:
If $\theta = 10^\circ$, BC =
If $\theta = 20^\circ$, BC =
Over this range, the maximum value for BC =
N and occurs when $\theta$ =
