- The 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_forwardTo lift the table without tilting, the combined moment of the four parallel forces must be zero about the x-axis and the y-axis (O is the center of the table). Determine the magnitude of the force F and the distance d.arrow_forwardDetermine the moment of the force F=40i8j+5kN about the y-axis.arrow_forward
