Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β€” Plane Kinetics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 6_3

6/3 The driver of a pickup truck accelerates from rest to a speed of 45 mi/hr over a horizontal distance of 225 ft with constant acceleration. The truck is hauling an empty 500-lb trailer with a uniform 60-lb gate hinged at O and held in the slightly tilted position by two pegs, one on each side of the trailer frame at A. Determine the maximum shearing force developed in each of the two pegs during the acceleration.

πŸ“ Solution Approach

Given: 225 ft
