B22 - Mid Sem - Eng. Mechanics

This document appears to be an exam for an Engineering Mechanics course. It contains 6 multi-part questions testing skills in: 1) Determining the magnitude, direction, and position of the resultant force of multiple acting forces. 2) Expressing forces as vectors and calculating moments about axes and lines. 3) Finding the resultant force of systems with forces applied at points. 4) Determining the resultant force and moment on a triangular wedge subjected to forces and couples. 5) Calculating force components and tensions in guy wires for a pole subjected to inclined forces. 6) Stating whether members of a plane truss are in tension or compression based on applied forces.
