Determine the Cable Tension Force for the Pedal – Static Equilibrium of Rigid Bodies Part 19

In this video, we find the reactions at the supports for the element/member/system/beam shown due to the applied forces. This problem is solved using static equilibrium of rigid bodies and the property that all forces, internal and external, must cancel and counteract each other so all forces sum to be zero, including reactions at supports.
