A wall bracket is attached to the wall by means of 2 identical bolts, one at A and one at B. The force of 20kN acts at a distance of 400mm. Bolt A lies at a distance of 50mm from axis of tilt and bolt B 500mm. Allowable shear stress in the bolts is 100N/mm² and tensile is 40N/mm². Find the effective tensile force acting in the two bolts.
