Chapter 4.4, Problem 9P
The dimensions of a jib crane are given in the figure. The crane has a mass of 800 kg and a center of mass at G. The bearing at A is a journal bearing and can support a horizontal force, whereas the bearing at B is a thrust bearing that supports both horizontal and vertical components. Determine the maximum load F that can be suspended from the end of the crane if the bearings at A and B can sustain a maximum resultant load of 24 kN and 54 kN, respectively.

The hoist consists of a single rope and an arrangement of frictionless pulleys as shown. If the angle
0 = 33°, determine the force that must be applied to the rope, Frope, to lift a load of 4.7 kN. The three-
pulley and hook assembly at the center of the system has a mass of 28.5 kg with a center of mass that lies
on the line of action of the force applied to the hook.
