Question

Find the symmetry reactions R1 and R2 when load acting is 10KN?

(a) 12873N and 7178N

(b) 5000N and 6000N

(c) 9138N and 21876N

(d) 6000N and 12000N

This question was posed to me at a job interview.

My question comes from IC Engine topic in chapter Design of IC Engine Components of Automotive Engine Design

Answer 1

Right choice is (b) 5000N and 6000N

Explanation: r1=r2=\(\frac{W}{2}\)

                                 =\(\frac{10000}{2}\)

                                 =5000N
