a. What is the moment of the force couple? (Hint: Transfer the force acting at point F to point E.) b. If the given system were equivalent to a force, R, applied at D, and a 125 N-m clockwise moment, what is the magnitude (in N-m) and direction of the moment, M? c. Further, if the system were reduced to a single force, R, acting along BC, what is its magnitude (in N) and direction (in degrees with respect to the x-axis) and how far from C should its point of application be? Illustrate all described equivalent systems.
