The moment about the Cantilever beam

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on understanding the forces acting on a cantilever beam, specifically the horizontal force (H) exerted by the wall. It highlights the relationship between vertical force (V) and weight (W), questioning what other forces are needed to balance the system. The conversation also addresses the moments acting on the beam, noting that the expected clockwise moment is countered by specific forces and distances. The forces at the wall are crucial in determining the beam's reaction to loading. Overall, the analysis emphasizes the importance of understanding force interactions in cantilever beam mechanics.

From the picture,
Why do this diagram have the force of H? The wall which exert the force of H to the beam?

V=W that have been known from the questions.
When V=W, what else of other forces to balance the forces of G and H?

Besides, the moment should been clockwise moment, then the counterclockwise in the picture that is occurred by which forces and distance?
:confused:

thank you very much!:smile:

The forces at the wall generally denote how the wall reacts to the loaded beam. Therefore only V and the moment would appear.

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
