The head-and-motor assembly of a radial drill press was originally
positioned with arm AB parallel to the z axis and the axis of the
chuck and bit parallel to they axis. The assembly was then rotated
25° about the y axis and 20° about the centerline of the horizontal
arm AB, bringing it into the position shown. The drilling process
was started by switching on the motor and rotating the handle to
bring the bit into contact with the workpiece. Replace the force

The moment about
the x axis due to the two cable forces can be found using the z components of each
force acting at their intersection with the xy-plane (A and D). The x components of the forces are parallel to
the x axis, and the y components of the forces intersect the x axis. Therefore, neither the x oi-y components

Four ropes are attached to a crate and exert the forces shown.
If the forces are to be replaced with a single equivalent force
applied at a point on line AB, determine (a) the equivalent
force and the distance from A to the point of application of
the force when a - 30°, (b) the value of a so that the single
