ShearForce & Bending Moment Exp

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around an experiment involving shear force and bending moments, where the lecturer inquires about the impact of vertical distance changes on force readings. The participant speculates that force readings will only change if the applied force is at a 90-degree angle to the point of application. They believe that since the distance change is perpendicular to the force, it should not affect the readings. The participant expresses uncertainty about their understanding and seeks confirmation of their reasoning. Overall, the conversation highlights the relationship between force application angles and measurement outcomes in structural analysis.

Homework Statement


Recently I am undergoing such experiment in school
and my lecturer asked that, as if any changes in the distance(vertically) will there be changes in the force/reading of it?Assuming there is no changes in anything else except the position of the tools.
(Since the "Cell load" is fixed I was unable to test it over the lab)

The Attempt at a Solution


My guess are
-the force will only change as if there is 90degree to the force applied point
-since the changes is perpendicular to it, so there will be no effect on it.

(Sorry for Bad English)
(I've fail much in my grammar )
