A cubic container whose sides all measure 0.8 m is planned to be loaded in a cargo compartment with a maximum running load of 1915 kg/m. The container shall be loaded on two ground supports (of negligible mass) having a length in the direction of the flight of 0.2 m each.
Given that the maximum running load of the cargo compartment must be respected, what is the maximum mass that can be loaded in the container?
Maximum Running load per meter = 1915 kg
Container will be carried on two ground support each of them is 0.2 m
Container contact with ground = 0.4 m
Maximum mass of the container = 0.4 x 1915 = 766 kg
Container will be carried on two ground support each of them is 0.2 m
Container contact with ground = 0.4 m
Maximum mass of the container = 0.4 x 1915 = 766 kg
