The control rod AP exerts a force F on the sector as shown. Determine the x-y components of

the force. You are given: F = 95 N, α = 25°, β = 37°, r = 90 mm.
The control rod AP exerts a force F on the sector as shown. Determine the n-t components of
the force. You are given: F = 95 N, α = 25°, β = 37°, r = 90 mm.

Determine the resultant R of the two forces applied to the bracket.

Replace the 40-kN force acting at point A by a force-couple system at point O. At point O, give the
magnitude of the resultant force and moment. The moment is positive if counterclockwise and negative
if clockwise.

Replace the 40-kN force acting at point A by a force-couple system at point B. At point B, give the
magnitude of the resultant force and moment. The moment is positive if counterclockwise and negative
if clockwise.
