I wanted to see how you would use statics. Like sum the forces and the moments. I wanted to see how its done

We need to be able to drive a forklift to be able to rest straps from the supersack on the top bars sticking out

One at each corner

Well it will have two of those side frames about 4 ft apart with connected cross beams

Its being built out of steel

Yes exactly. Its a distance. I need to figure out how long that beam should be so thing thing doesn't fall over from the weight.

Does x need to have a constraint? Its a statics problem. I figured you sum up the forces in the x direction, sum up the forces in the y direction and sum of the moments and solve for x. Seems pretty straight forward I am just trying to check if i did it right so i want to see how someone who...

Im trying to build a structure that can hold a 1300 lb supersack full of walnuts for work.

So given a force F that is at r1/2, distances y, r1,r2,and r3. What is x?

fair enough, i will have to think about this thank you

Thank you for this. I hope I am not coming off as ignoring what I am told. I am willing to learn. but it seems like everyone here doesn't want to explain they just want to tell me I am wrong. and need to learn more and shut up.

I am not trolling anyone. I really appreciate peoples inputs i don't know enough about this stuff and explanation are welcome. Id like to learn more but all u have are my thoughts. If you guys would, instead of getting mad at me for not being as smart as you, help me understand where i am going...

but time around me has?

I know it isn't possible but people do physics where they make assumptions that you are moving at .9c all the time. how is this different https://worldbuilding.stackexchange.com/questions/41425/practical-problems-of-near-light-speed-travel

thats Einsteins invention. its called time dilation. In order for the speed of light to remain constant in all inertial frames of reference then time has to be able to slow down. as well as space needs to expand. hence the idea of spacetime and it curving. "Gravitational time dilation is a...
