0.75m Fig. P3.22, Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics, Beer. Uang and Gilbert. 9th ed. 3. Before the trunk of a large tree is felled, cables AB and BC are attached as shown. Knowing that the tensions in cables AB and BC are 555 N and 660 N, respectively, Determine the moment about O of the resultant force exerted on the tree by the cables at B. Determine the perpendicular distance from point O to cable AB.
