A clockwise couple \(\boldsymbol{M}\) is resisted by the shaft of the electric motor. Determine the magnitude of the reaction forces \(-\mathbf{R}\) and \(\mathbf{R}\) which act at supports \( A \) and \( B \) so that the resultant of the two couples is zero. Note that the support legs of the motor are inclined at an angle \(\boldsymbol{\theta}\) as shown in the diagram below. h(ft)=1.25, M(lbs-ft)=7, deg=75.
A clockwise couple \ ( \ boldsymbol { M } \ ) is
