Answer:A.

(5+5+5)*10 = 5h,
15 * 10 = 5h,
150 = 5h,
h = 150÷5,
h = 30.

@Suresh.

Where is the point B? Explain about it.

(5+5+5)*10 = h*5.
h = 150÷5,
h = 30ton.

10x15 = Hx5.
H = 30 tonnes.

Considering Zero moment at point A, B is point below point A.
Rbx=horizontal reaction at B, Rax=horizontal reaction at A
Ma=moment at A.

E Ma=0
(-Rbx5)+(15x10)=0
-5Rbx= -10x15=150
Rbx=30 ton.
E R=0 ->+.
-Rax+Rbx=0.
Rax=Rbx=30 ton.

Because it has only axial load and there is 3 axial load to be applicable in a space of 5m from A point so total is 10 each tonne for 3 (10 * 3 = 30 tonnes).

Take sum of moments at other rigid joint = 0.

10 * 15 = h * 5.

Then, H = 30.
