A pin jointed uniform rigid rod of weight W and length is supported horizontally by an external force F as shown in the figure below. The force F is suddenly removed. At the instant of force removal, the magnitude of vertical reaction developed at the support is

Two steel truss members, AC and BC, each having cross sectional area of 100 mm², are subjected to a horizontal force F as shown in figure. All the joints are hinged.

If F = 1 kN, the magnitude of the vertical reaction force developed at the point B in kN is

Two steel truss members, AC and BC, each having cross sectional area of 100 mm², are subjected to a horizontal force F as shown in figure. All the joints are hinged.

The maximum force F in kN that can be applied at C such that the axial stress in any of the truss members DOES NOT exceed 100MPa is

A 1 kg block is resting on a surface with coefficient of friction $$\mu $$ $$=0.1.$$ A force of $$0.8$$ $$N$$ is applied to the block as shown in the figure. The friction force is
