Lesson: Equivalent System of Forces to a Couple

is a square, where the five forces, measured in newtons, are acting on it as shown in the figure. If the system of forces is equivalent to a couple, determine and .

is a square having a side length of 85 cm. Forces of magnitudes 30, 55, 30, and 55 newtons are acting along the square’s sides, and two equal forces of magnitude newtons, are acting at and in the directions shown in the figure. Find the couple equivalent to the system.

is a square having a side length of 50 cm. Forces of magnitudes 30, 60, 160, and 10 newtons are acting at , , , and , respectively, while two forces of magnitudes and newtons are acting at and , respectively. If the system is equivalent to a couple, find its moment considering the positive direction is .
