The figure shows three forces acting on a pin supported rectangular plate at points A B and C Use the scalar method of computing moments in this problem a Compute the moment of the force at A about D and write your answer in vector form note you can use the scalar method to find the moment b Compute the magnitude and orientation 0 0 180 of the smallest force Fg that creates the same moment about D that you found in part a c If FB 20 lb and 0 30 compute the magnitude of the horizontal force Fc that makes the resultant moment of these three forces about D equal to zero 16 in 30 in 23 55 lb A D 24 in B 20 in C FB Fc 0
