Transcribed Image Text:**Problem #3**
The bent pipe resists forces as shown. Determine the moment of each force about each of the coordinate axes (9 results required).
**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram depicts a bent pipe structure fixed at point A and subject to three forces: F1, F2, and F3. These forces act at different points along the pipe, influencing its stability.
- **Pipe Structure:**
- The pipe extends vertically from point A to point B, a height of 40 inches.
- From point B, the pipe bends and extends horizontally to point C, a distance of 25 inches.
- At point C, the pipe bends again and points downward to point D, a length of 12 inches.
- **Forces Applied:**
- **F1 = 200#** (pounds): Acts horizontally along the negative X-axis at point B.
- **F2 = 500#** (pounds): Acts horizontally along the positive X-axis at point C.
- **F3 = 400#** (pounds): Acts vertically downward at point D.
- **Coordinate Axes:**
- The diagram is aligned with a three-dimensional coordinate system:
- X-axis: horizontal direction along the base.
- Y-axis: vertical direction extending upwards.
- Z-axis: horizontal direction perpendicular to X-axis and Y-axis (into the plane).
The task is to compute the moment created by these forces around each coordinate axis, requiring calculations for overall nine moments.
