4.2 Moments (A-level only)

Question 11

In this question use $g = 9.8$ m s $^{-2}$ .

A uniform rod $AB\,$ has length 3 m and mass 4 kg. The rod rests horizontally in equilibrium on two supports at $C\,$ and $D$ , where $A C = 0.5$ m and $A D = 2$ m.

Figure for question 7

Find the magnitude of the reaction of the support on the rod at $C\,$ and the magnitude of the reaction of the support on the rod at $D$ .
