From either of the lasi two equations we get r, sin a tit Since ll and a are fixed F can be changed only by changing 0. Thereforethe minimum… … Fig. 35. Since cos 6 = 0 the first equation of equilibrium givesR = W cos a a Discussion. — It will be observed that the first two of the equationsof equilibrium are sufficient to solve the problem. When h is zero, F = 0 and R = W. On the other hand when h = a,F = W and R = 0. PROBLEMS. 1. Prove…
