Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around determining the magnitude and location of the resultant for a load system, as presented in a visual attachment. The subject area pertains to statics within physics or engineering contexts.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Conceptual clarification, Problem interpretation

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • The original poster attempts to calculate the resultant force and its location but expresses uncertainty about the next steps after initial calculations. Some participants question the clarity of the problem setup and the original poster's understanding of the process involved.

Discussion Status

The discussion is ongoing, with participants sharing updates about the problem's visual representation and expressing a desire for guidance on the methodology. There is an indication of a need for conceptual clarification rather than a straightforward solution.

Contextual Notes

Participants mention the use of a digital camera for problem representation and express frustration over the process of sharing the problem visually. There is a suggestion that the exercise is intended for personal understanding rather than formal homework.

Please help me, "Determine the Magnitude & Location of the Resultant for...

Hi, I need some help understanding how to do this type of problem, I attached a digital picture version of the problem.

Homework Statement



Determine the Magnitude and Location of the Resultant for the Load System shown:^That's what they want, please help me.

The visual representation is in the attachment.


This is as far as I get in this problem,

W= (8KN/m) 6m= 48Kn

R= Summation FY=

Summation MA=

X bar=I have no idea what to do next

Update-

Attached the .JPEG


I need to buy a damn scanner, this took me probably longer then how long it takes to do the problem.

If you have a digital camera, why not use that?
 


Ok the updload is done, the STATICS PROBLEM.jpg is the actual Digital Picture, sorry for going in a maze over this, I feel so stupid right now:shy:, let me clean up the first post...
 


Help please, I need to know how to do these problems, it isn't a Homework its just an exercise for my brain. If I can see the process of how it is done, then I can understand it and put it to use, If I see a process it sticks in my mind forever.
