PROBLEM 3 GIVEN: Parameters 14 in 28 in 84 kips 187 kips REQUIRED: The force-couple system shown acts on a trapezoidal plate. a) Determine the value of M1 if the system shown is equivalent to a single force acting at point C. b) The system shown is equivalent to a force-couple system consisting of R and M2 = 3000 kip-in clockwise. If M1 in this case is 120 kip-in counterclockwise, determine the point of action of the resultant force R along line CD.
