Example 5: The tower crane is used to hoist the 2-Mg load upward at constant
velocity. The 1.5-Mg jib BD, 0.5-Mg jib BC, and 6-Mg counterweight C have
centers of mass at GI, G2, and G3, respectively. Determine the resultant moment

Solution:
Since the moment arms of the weights and the load measured to points A and B are the same, the
resultant moments produced by the load and the weight about points A and B are the same.
