// Two cylinders, A of weight 4000 N and B of weight 2000 N rest on smooth inclines. They are connected by a bar of negligible weight hinged to each cylinder at its geometric centre by smooth pins
//variable declaration
WA=4000.0 //weight of cylinder A,N
WB=2000.0 //weight of cylinder B,N
thetaWA=60.0*%pi/180.0 //inclination of wall with cylinderA,°
thetaWB=45.0*%pi/180.0 //inclination of wall with cylinderB,°
thetaAb=15.0*%pi/180.0 //angle inclination bar with cylinder A ,N
thetaBb=15.0*%pi/180.0 //angle inclination bar with cylinder B ,N
//he free body diagram of the two cylinders. Applying Lami’s theorem to the system of forces on cylinder A, we get
C=WA*sin(thetaWA)/sin(thetaWA+(%pi/2)-thetaAb)
//Consider cylinder B. Summation of the forces parallel to the inclined plane
P=(-WB*cos(thetaWB)+C*cos(thetaWA))/cos(thetaBb)
