Transcribed Image Text:3.8 An 11-lb force P is applied to a shift lever. The moment of P about
B is clockwise and has a magnitude of 250 lb-in. Determine the value
of a.
Rod AB is held in place by the cord AC. Knowing that the tension in
the cord is 1350 N and that c = 360 mm, determine the moment about
B of the force exerted by the cord at point A by resolving that force
into horizontal and vertical components applied (a) at point A, (b) at
point C.
