Question: a Replace the shown force system two forces and a couple with an equivalent system consisting of a single resultant force R applied at point

a Replace the shown force system two forces and a couple with an equivalent system consisting of a single resultant force R applied at point A and a couple M b Then place the resultant force R at another location so that by itself it is equivalent to the original force system ie so no separate couple must be added What is the horizontal distance from point A to the line of action of this single resultant force R
