Apply equilibrium conditions

Apply equilibrium conditions

Consider the jib crane shown in the
given image, where it is supported by a pin at C and rod AB. The maximum
tension allowed in the rod is 60 kN and the maximum rated force in the pin C is
80 kN. The load has a mass of 2000 Kg with its center of mass located at G.

Apply equilibrium conditions and
express FC and FAB as functions of x (the distance shown
on the figure). Note: FC is the overall force in pin C which is
obtained by first finding CX and CY.
