Abridgeis36.5mlongandweighs2.56x105 N. Atruckweighing 5.25x104Nis10.2 m from one end of the bridge. Calculate the upward force that must be exerted by each pier to support thisweight

Explanation:

Bridge length A B = 36.5 m

weight W = 2.56 x 10⁵ N acting at middle point that is at 18.25 m from either end.

weight of truck W₁ = 5.25 x 10⁴ N  standing at 10.2 m from A .

Let force at A be F₁ and at B be F₂ .

Balancing total upward and downward force

F₁ + F₂ = ( 2.56 + .525 ) x 10⁵ = 3.085 x 10⁵ N

Taking torque of all the forces , for rotational balancing

2.56 x 10⁵ x 18.25 + .525 x 10⁵ x 10.2 = F₂ x 36.5

(46.72 + 5.355 )x 10⁵ = F₂ x 36.5

F₂ = 1.42 x 10⁵ N

F₁ = 1.665 x 10⁵ N

you go to your settings preference and in the end youll see sth that says "i want to delete my acc" click on it and u'll acc will be deleted but u have to wait.

the answer is a. hope this .
