A rigid member ACB is shown in the figure. The member is supported at A and B by pinned and guided roller supports, respectively. A force P acts at C as shown. Let RAh and RBh be the horizontal reactions at supports A and B, respectively, and RAv be the vertical reaction at support A. Self-weight of the member may be ignored.Which one of the following sets gives the correct magnitudes of RAv, RBh, and RAh ? |
A. | \({R_{Av}} = 0;{R_{Bh}} = \frac{1}{3}P;and\;{R_{Ah}} = \frac{2}{3}P\) |
B. | \({R_{Av}} = 0;{R_{Bh}} = \frac{2}{3}P;and\;{R_{Ah}} = \frac{1}{3}P\) |
C. | \({R_{Av}} = P;{R_{Bh}} = \frac{3}{8}\;P;and\;{R_{Ah}} = \frac{{1.5}}{8}P\) |
D. | \({R_{Av}} = P;{R_{Bh}} = \frac{{1.5}}{8}P;and\;{R_{Ah}} = \frac{{1.5}}{8}P\) |
