A rectangular metal plate ABCD is supported by two hinges `P_(1)` and `P_(2)` so that it remains in equilibrium in vertical plane (with line AB vertical) as shown in the figure. The contact forces `R_(1)` and `R_(2)` exerted by hinges on the metal plate is best, depicted by

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
For the metal plate to be in equilibrium `sumF_(H)=0` and `sumF_(V)=0`. This is possible only in option (3)
