Question 8, theentire question of which tested the students on simplification to a wrench resultant, is shown inAppendix D. Note that some parts of the questions ask the students to prove intermediate results,which may also be used to solve subsequent parts even if the proof is not obtained. Question 8part c) offers the student either method of solving the wrench resultant, after which in part d) thecontinuation of the chosen method is expected. The marking scheme is also included in theaforementioned appendices. For consistency, the same TA marked a particular question. Theyare also told

If the door weighs 350 N with center of gravityat point D and it is desired that a 40 N vertical force applied by a person’s hand at point Ewill begin closing the door, determine the force each of the two struts must support and thereactions at the hinge.SolutionRoad Map Although the

(3) Given the centroid location and areamoment of inertia, find (a) controlling section modulus, (b) bending stress at a particular point,(c) maximum bending stress, (d) maximum tension bending stress, and (e) maximumcompression bending stress. Note that most of these questions were asked for in the originalproblem statement. To create multiple versions of questions 1 through 3a, one or more of thecross-sectional dimensions would need to be defined as a variable. To create multiple versionsof questions 3b through 3e, the bending moment could be defined as a variable. Both
