Homework Statement
Calculate reaction forces R1x, R1y, R2x, R2y. Load of 100N. Node 1 and 2 are fixed. Distances listed on image.
Homework Equations
[/B]I have:
∑Fx = 0 = R1x + R2x
∑Fy = 100 = R1y + R2y
∑M2 = 0 = (-100 x 0.1) + R1 x 0.06 + R1y x 0.02
∑M1 = 0 = (-100 x 0.04) + (-R2x x 0.06) + (-R2y x 0.02)
The Attempt at a Solution
Using this equations I have tried to solve using matrices but I get a number error in Excel. Could someone please help clarify if I've made a mistake or why this can't be solved?
Thank you
