Question: ? * * 4 - 1 2 . Two men exert forces of F = 8 0 l b and P = 5 0 l

?**4-12. Two men exert forces of F=80lb and P=50lb on the ropes. Determine the moment of each force about point A. Which way will the pole rotate, clockwise or counterclockwise?
4-13. If the man at B exerts a force of P=30lb on the rope, determine the magnitude of the force F the man at C must exert to prevent the pole from rotating, i.e., so the resultant moment about point A of both forces is zero.
