A 9250 kg bridge going east-west is supported by two pillars. The bridge is 47.0 m long with a pillar 5.0m from the west end and 10 meters from the east end. How much force is applied on each of the pillars? 39,023 N and 52,477 N

N/B

Kindly find attached the sketch and the free body diagram solution to the problem

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the moments of forces

Moment is the turning effect of a force about a point. It is the product of force times perpendicular distance from the point of action

dec 23, 2016 - a load of bricks weighing 680 n a distance of 10 m across a parking lot. if if the worker pushes the cart with a constant force of 209 n, what work= force x distance = 220 n x 10 m = 2200 n.m = 2200 j i don't know where the person got it from, but the initial part, work= force x distance me.
