2. The hinged component shown in Fig. 2 is used to activate a latching device for securing a large trailer body to its undercarriage. If a tension T = 400 N is required in the horizontal control rod to trip the plunger against which the component acts at C, estimate the force supported by the pin at A. [Ans - 458 N ]
