AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the spreading force applied at points G and H when a 50N force is applied. The user is analyzing the free body diagram (FBD) of a specific part of the tool, identifying forces and reactions at points A, C, F, and H. They note having four unknowns and three reactions, leading to confusion about how to solve for the forces accurately. The user indicates they have resolved the issue but does not specify the solution. The conversation highlights the importance of correctly identifying forces and reactions in static equilibrium problems.

Homework Statement



The special tool is used for installing and removing snap rings.Determine the spreding force applied at G and H if P=50N.

Homework Equations



ƩF_x=0 ;
ƩF_y=0;
Ʃm=0

The Attempt at a Solution


I am drawing the FBD of the A-C-F-H part of the special tools. I have at A(the 50-Ns of 5) ,at C I have the reaction from the two force member CD , at F I have two Fx and Fy from the pin , and at H I have the H force in the negative y-direction.So I have 4 unkowns and three reactions, where is my mistake or what should I do, in order to get the right result?
