2D Rigid Body Example-Crane Part 1

[@parkerflop]

the sin cos thing seems switched but I think that it is fine as sin45=cos45

[@shylildude]

i may be wrong but i think you got the cos and sin reversed

[@faroukmabsout508]

yes he took reversed projection for the force at X & Y axis, but in this case we have 45 degrees angle so in trigenometric ruls sin 45=cos 45 then that didn't affect calcul

[@jilanigujrat5210]

can someone tell me what is the 2000 and how is the force 2000...

[@Kurdishking55]

Jilani Gujrat it is just a given force...

[@nikaman9539]

He said its the "force applied by gravity" which means weight

I would like to know how he derived the CofG at this location on the boom. Can this be calculated from the supplied information and how?
