- Determine the moment of the force F about point A in terms of F and d. Use (a) the scalar method; and (b) the vector method.arrow_forwardThe trapdoor is held in the horizontal plane by two wires. Replace the forces in the wires with an equivalent force R that passes through point A, and determine the y-coordinate of point A.arrow_forwardThe force F of magnitude 200 N is perpendicular to the plane ABC. Determine the magnitude of its moment about the x-axis.arrow_forward
