During a steady right turn, a person exerts the forces shown on the steering wheel. Note that each force consists of a tangential component and a radially-inward component. Determine the moment exerted about the steering column at O. The moment will be positive if counterclockwise, negative if clockwise.

The tower crane is used to lift the 1.8-ton load upwards at a constant speed. The mass center of the 1.4-ton beam BD is at G1, the mass center of the 0.5-ton beam BC is at G2 and the mass center of the 6.8-ton counterweight C is at G3. A) Determine the moment of force exerted by the load, counterweight and beams together around point A and point B. Let counterclockwise rotation be a plus.Express the answers with three value digits, and separate the force moments for point A and point B with a comma. B) To get the correct answer to the calculation in the previous task, should one assume that the tower crane is a rigid body? (choose the right answer) - Yes, but it is always a bad approximation in reality: all bodies are deformable (regardless of size)- Yes, because it is a good approximation, it would only be bad if the load was so heavy that the crane bent significantly- It does not matter, you can assume it or not, you always get the same mathematical equations no matter what you…
