Homework Statement
The cutting force developed during a particular machining operation is shown in figure (a).
Model the system as a SDF with equivalent mass of the cutting head = 25 kg. The damping is linear viscous (ξ = 0.1), and the equivalent spring is nonlinear “hardening” spring of...
Thanks for getting the picture posted hypersniper. That does look like you're on the right track but I'm not sure about the placement of A due to forces. It does seem that if rods are all expanding, the point A would move to the right slightly and cause both 60* angles to be slightly larger.
Well since temperature is increasing it will increase the forces in all rods due to expansion. The FBD is point A with Fb to the left, Fc to the right and 60* above horizontal, and Fd to the right 60* below horizontal.
One source of confusion is that my equation involves deltaT or change in...

Even if the rope goes through a pulley? So that means T1=T2=T3?
Ahh, just solved it. Thanks for all of your help. T1=T2=T3=Mg/2 and since T4=T1+T2+T3, T4=(3Mg)/2 and since F=T1, F=Mg/2
