Determine the magnitude of the horizontal force F = −Fi acting on the handle of the wrench so that this force produces a component of the moment along the OA axis (z axis) of the pipe assembly of Mz = {4k} N · m. Both the wrench and the pipe assembly, OABC, lie in the y-z plane. Suggestion: Use a scalar analysis.
