Question
The wrench A is used to hold the pipe in a stationary
position while wrench B is used to tighten the elbow fitting.
Determine the magnitude of force FB in order to develop a
torque of 50 N*m about the y axis. Also, what is the required
magnitude of force FA in order to counteract this moment?
Explanation / Answer
Moment
= Fb sin 120 *300 mm
= 46.76 N-m
Fa sin 135 = Fb sin 120 =50sin 120
Fa=61.2372435696 N
