The figure shows one-half of a universal coupling known as the Hooke's joint. The coupling is acted on by the three couples shown: (a) the input couple consisting of forces of magnitude P, (b) the output couple C0, and (c) the couple formed by bearing reactions of magnitude R. If the resultant of these couples is zero, compute R and C0 for P=750lb.
