Reaction Force at Fulcrum of Lever given Effort, Load and Contained Angle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Force at Lever Fulcrum Pin = sqrt(Load on lever^2+Effort on Lever^2-2*Load on lever*Effort on Lever*cos(Angle Between Lever Arms))
R_f = sqrt(W^2+P^2-2*W*P*cos(θ))
This formula uses 2 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)
sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Force at Lever Fulcrum Pin - (Measured in Newton) - Force at Lever Fulcrum Pin is the force acting onto the fulcrum pin (the pivot about which a lever turns) used as a joint at a fulcrum point.
Load on lever - (Measured in Newton) - Load on lever is the instantaneous load that is resisted by the lever.
Effort on Lever - (Measured in Newton) - Effort on Lever is the force applied on the input of the lever to overcome the resistance to get the work done by the machine.
Angle Between Lever Arms - (Measured in Radian) - Angle Between Lever Arms is the angle between the two arms of a lever or the contained angle between the arms.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load on lever: 2945 Newton --> 2945 Newton No Conversion Required
Effort on Lever: 294 Newton --> 294 Newton No Conversion Required
Angle Between Lever Arms: 135 Degree --> 2.3561944901919 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_f = sqrt(W^2+P^2-2*W*P*cos(θ)) --> sqrt(2945^2+294^2-2*2945*294*cos(2.3561944901919))

Evaluating ... ...

R_f = 3159.73567386719

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

3159.73567386719 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

3159.73567386719 ≈ 3159.736 Newton <-- Force at Lever Fulcrum Pin
