Question 4950 Deck General

The correct answer is A) 100.0 feet. To calculate the new LCG after the load changes, we can use the formula: (Initial LCG * Initial Displacement) + (Load 1 * Load 1 Moment) + (Load 2 * Load 2 Moment) / (Initial Displacement + Load 1 - Load 2). Given: - Initial displacement: 10,000 kips - Initial LCG: 100 feet AFO - Load 1: 200 kips at 60 feet AFO - Load 2: 100 kips at 20 feet AFO Plugging these values into the formula: (100 * 10,000) + (200 * 60) + (100 * -20) / (10,000 + 200 - 100) = 1,000,000 + 12,000 - 2,000 / 10,100 = 1,010,000 / 10,100 = 100.0 feet Therefore, the new LCG is 100.0 feet, which matches the correct answer A.
