Two farmers are pushing on a gate with forces FA and FB, applied at locations A and B respectively. The gate has a hinge at C'and you may neglect the thickness of the gate. Assume that the gate is in static equilibrium. The force FA is applied at an angle of a = 30° and the force Fg is applied at an angle of B = 35°. The distance between Band the hinge at C'is DBC = 2 m, and the distance between A and the hinge at C is DAc = 3 m. Suppose that |FA| = 400 N. DAC Dạc OK

B respectively. The gate has a hinge at C and you may neglect the thickness of the
gate. Assume that the gate is in static equilibrium. The force FA is applied at an angle
of a = 30° and the force FB is applied at an angle of 3 = 35°. The distance
between Band the hinge at C'is DBC = 2 m, and the distance between A and the
hinge at C is DAC = 3 m. Suppose that FA|
