Find the support reactions on beam.
Relevant Equations
Sum of moments
Hello! in this good afternoon ;).

I need some help for this beam and his support reactions.

The problem it is done, but my result its different from the teacher`s result.

I'm sure my answer is correct, as even the "SkyCivbeam" online software also gives the same results.

it appears that the problem lies in the momentum that accompanies the 150 N force...but i don't know..

Thanks for read!

The concentrated moment should be not 150, but 150 N x 1.5 m.
Nope. Note that the moment is given as 150Nm (the yellow is kind of hard to read). Multiplying it by a length again will mess up your units.

Please, note that the yellow color shows the incorrect input value into the online calculator.
If the reaction moment at the point of connection between the beam and the L-shape lever is 150 N-m, that lever can't remain in static equilibrium respect to the beam.
Please see original problem shown by hand drawn diagram on top left corner of OP.
