The figure shows one half of a universal coupling known as Hooke's joint. The coupling is acted on by three couples as shown: (a) the input couple consisting of forces of magnitude P, (b) the output couple Co, and (c) the couple formed by bearing reactions of magnitude R. If the sum of these couples is zero, compute R and Co for P = 600 lb. R 6 in +2 in.
