(choose chapter or problem)

The mechanism shown is used to lower disabled persons into a whirlpool tub for therapeutic treatment. In the unloaded configuration, the weight of the boom and hanging chair induces a compressive force of 575 N in hydraulic cylinder AB. (Compressive means that the force which cylinder AB exerts on point B is directed from A toward B.) If  \(\theta=30^{\circ}\), determine the moment of this cylinder force acting on pin B about (a) point O and (b) point C.
