Calculate the internal axial load at a point D if length L=7 ft. The part is subjected to loads P1=632 lbs, P2=888 lbs (applied halfway between points A and B), and a moment M=49 ft-lbs. Provide your answer in lbs and pay attention to your signs.

Answer:

- 256 lbs

Explanation:

The internal axial load at point D can be calculated as the change in the subjected loads. if the magnitude of the horizontal direction = zero

[tex]EF_x = 0[/tex]; Then:

internal axial load at point D = Δ P

= -(P₂ - P₁)

= - ( 888 lbs - 632 lbs)

= - 256 lbs
