Question
![Learning Goal:
To understand the concept of moment of a force and how to
calculate it using a vector formulation.
Part A
A man wishes to spin a merry-go-round in the x-y plane centered at
the origin (0.000, 0.000, 0.000). (Figure 1) Because he must pull
upward and cannot stand on the merry-go-round, he must apply a
force in the direction of the unit vector
What are the x, y, and z components of the resulting moment acting on the merry-go-round about the origin?
Express your answers numerically in pound-feet to three significant figures separated by commas.
u = (-1/3)i+ (2/3)j+(2/3)k. He pulls with a force F = 36.0

The magnitude of a moment about a line segment connecting points P and Q due to a force F applied at point R (with R not on the line through P and Q) can be calculated using the scalar triple product, MPQ = = upq r x F, where r is a position vector from any point on the line through P and Q to R and up is the unit vector in the direction of line segment PQ. The unit vector upq is then multiplied by this magnitude to find the vector representation of the moment. As shown in the figure, the member is anchored at A and section AB lies in the x-y plane. The dimensions are x₁ = 1.2 m, y₁ = 1.8 m, and z1₁ = 1.6 m. The force applied at point C is F = [-170 i +105 j + 110 k] N.
