Question: Consider the pipe segment A B that lies in the x z - plane. The pipe is bent in a circular form with a radius

Consider the pipe segment AB that lies in the xz-plane. The pipe is bent in a circular form with a radius of 4.9m. The pipe is supported at A by an unknown support and at B with a cable BC.
The system is subjected to a loading that is NOT shown.
Let F denote the tension in cable BC and consider the force ?bar(F) as in the sketch that the cable exerts on the point B of the pipe.
Answer the following questions.
a)
Calculate cartesian vector moment ?bar(M) of force ?bar(F) about point A.
?bar(M)?b=ar(i)+,bar(j)+bar(k)
Consider the pipe segment A B that lies in the x
