**Question:**
Three forces are applied to a bracket as shown in the figure below. Replace the given force system by a resultant force system acting at point O. Then, replace the resultant force system by the simplest resultant and locate its line of action as it passes through the y-z plane.
**Diagram Analysis:**
The diagram depicts a bracket with the following forces applied to it:
1. A force of 1000 N applied at point C on the bracket, angled at 45° in both the y and z planes.
2. A force of 700 N applied at point B on the bracket, directly downward along the z-axis.
3. A force of 1200 N applied at point D on the bracket, angled at 30° from the x-axis and 60° from the z-axis.
**Measurements and Coordinates:**
- Points A, B, C, D, and E are specified with the following dimensions:
- Point A is located 50 mm along the y-axis and 50 mm along the x-axis from the origin.
- Point B is located vertically down 100 mm from point A.
- Point C is located 75 mm along the y-axis and 75 mm along the z-axis from point A.
- Point D is located 100 mm along the x-axis from point O, and is also vertically upward.
- Point E is provided for reference with coordinates (150 mm, -50 mm, 100 mm) though it's not directly involved in force application.
**Visualization:**
- The coordinate system is marked with x, y, and z directions.
- The angles and distances are given to fully define the vectors of the applied forces.
- Axes are labeled, and the origin point (O) is marked for reference. Forces are labeled with their magnitudes and directions.
### Task Objective:
1. **Determine the Resultant Force System at O:**
- Calculate the resultant force vector by summing the individual force vectors applied at points C, B, and D.
- Compute the moments resulting from these forces around point O.
2. **Simplify the Resultant Force System:**
- Combine the calculated forces and moments into a single resultant force and a single resultant moment.
- Identify the line of action of the resultant force as it passes through the y-z plane, providing the simplest resultant system representation.
