s of all the forces withrespect to some point conveniently selected as origin. 147. A homogeneous straight rod AB= 2I (Fig. 38) of weight Wrests with one end A 071 a smooth horizontal plane AH, and with thepoint E(AE = e) on a cylindrical support, the axis of the cylinder beingalright angles to the… … The rod exerts a certain unknown pressure on each of the supports atA and £, in the direction of the normals to the surfaces of contact, pro-vided there be no friction, as is here assumed. The supports maytherefore be imagined removed if forces A, E, equal and opposite tothese pressures, be…
