1. Determine the magnitude of the moment produced by the force of F = 200 N about the hinged axis (the x axis) of the door.
2. The turnbuckle is tightened until the tension in cable AB is 1.2 kN. Calculate the magnitude of the moment about point O of the force acting on point A.
3. If the magnitude of the moment of F about line CD is 50 N.m determine the magnitude of F.
4. Replace the two forces and single couple by an equivalent forcecouple system at point A.
5. Determine the force-couple equivalent at A.
6. A tension T of Magnitude 10 kN is applied to the cable attached to the top A of the rigid mast and secured to the ground at B. Determine the Moment Mz of T about the z axis passing through the base O.
