As with all 2D equivalent system problems, we will start by summing forces in the x-direction, summing forces in the y-direction, and summing moments about any point. We will do this for the "original system" which we will consider system 1. Then we must ensure the exact same things take place in system 2. a) Compute the required value of F5 such that the EFX in system 1 is the same as in system 2 b) Confirm that the EF, is the same in both systems c) Compute the required value of M₂ such that the EMo in system 1 is the same as in system 2. You must use point O as your reference point for both systems. d) Confirm your answers by summing moments about point P instead. System 1 must still be the same as system 2 if they are truly equivalent. You must use point P as your reference point in both systems.

We will make system 1 equivalent to system 2. As with all 2D equivalent system problems, we will start by
summing forces in the x-direction, summing forces in the y-direction, and summing moments about any
point. We will do this for the "original system" which we will consider system 1. Then we must ensure the
exact same things take place in system 2.
a) Compute the required value of F5 such that the Fx in system 1 is the same as in system 2
b)
Confirm that the EF, is the same in both systems
c) Compute the required value of M₂ such that the EMo in system 1 is the same as in system 2. You
must use point O as your reference point for both systems.
d) Confirm your answers by summing moments about point P instead. System 1 must still be the same
as system 2 if they are truly equivalent. You must use point P as your reference point in both
systems.
