As follower AB rolls along the surface of member C, it exerts a constant force F perpendicular

Question:

As follower AB rolls along the surface of member C, it exerts a constant force F perpendicular to the surface.

(a) Replace F with an equivalent force-couple system at the point D.

(b) For b = 1 ft and h = 2 ft, determine the value of x for which the moment of the equivalent force couple system at D is maximum.
