The machine shown is used for moving heavy items such as pallets of bricks around construction sites. For the horizontal boom
position shown, determine the force in each of the two hydraulic cylinders AB (positive if in tension, negative if in compression). The
mass of the boom is 1740 kg with mass center at G1, and the mass of the cube of bricks is 2030 kg with mass center at G2.
Assume a = 955 mm, b = 180 mm, c = 690 mm, d = 835 mm, e = 1740 mm, and f = 3255 mm.
