The system consists of the two smooth spheres, each weighing 3 lb and connected by a light spring, and the two bars of negligible weight hinged freely at their ends and hanging in the vertical plane. The spheres are confined to slide in the smooth horizontal guide.

The body A with a mass of 50 kg is in equilibrium with the help of the pulling force generated in the AB and AC cables in the middle of the inclined plane and the friction force between the curved surface and the object. The friction force is on the line of motion of body A and develops in the opposite direction to the movement in the direction of the arrow shown in the drawing. Since the pulling force in AB and AC cables is 15.1 and 22.1 N, respectively, calculate the balancer friction force acting on the object vectorially? (g = 9.81 m / s'2)
