Question: The 1 0 0 - 1 b door has its center of gravity at G . Someone is pulling on the doorknob at point C

The 100-1b door has its center of gravity at G. Someone is pulling on the doorknob at point C with a magnitude of 30lb along the line CD. A second person is pulling with an unknown force (Cx) on the other side of the doorknob directly in the negative x-direction. Determine the components of reaction at hinges A and B if hinge B resists only forces in the x and y directions and A resists forces in the x,y,z directions. Also determine the force that the second person would need to pull with (force Cx) such that the system remains in equilibrium.
