2/40 A man exerts a force F on the handle of the station- ary wheelbarrow at A. The mass of the wheelbar- row along with its load of dirt is 85 kg with center of mass at G. For the configuration shown, what force F must the man apply at A to make the net moment about the tire contact point B equal to zero?
