Shear force and Bending moment of a Cantilever Rod

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating shear forces and bending moments for a cantilever rod positioned at a 45-degree angle with a specified load. The user seeks assistance in determining the shear forces at points A and B, as well as the moment at point C, given specific distances from the load. A contributor emphasizes the importance of listing relevant equations and showing calculations to facilitate verification. They also note that while direct shear forces at A and B cannot be found, the shear force between these points can be calculated. The conversation highlights the need for clarity on the definition of shear force being used in the calculations.

1. I have a rod as pictured in the attachment. The rod is at a 45 degree angle.
The load force is 115.118lbf
The force is y-direction is 97.954lbf

The Force at A is 5 inches from Force in the y-direction.
The force at B is 10.5 inches from the Force in the y-direction

I need to find the shear forces for A and B and the moment at point C

I am stuck at the shear forces (V)

Thanks for the help

Plz help I messed up here
 
kgprice11: You must list relevant equations yourself, and show your work. And then someone might check your math.
 
You will not be able to find the shear forces at A and at B. But you will be able to find the shear force between A and B. Which definition of shear force do you prefer to use? (there are at least two)
