Given that,
Force = 800 lb
Distance = 3 ft
According to the figure,
The forces are,
Where, F = force
= angle between forces
The forces are acting at points
We need to calculate the moment of the couple
Using formula of net torque
Where, F = force
r = perpendicular distance
Put the value into the formula
Hence, The moment of the couple is -2400k ft.lb
