What is the contribution to the moment about point o


As shown, a rope is attached to a l=5.00 m high shed that is to be relocated. A man pulls on the end of the rope at point A; the rope is attached to the shed at point B. (Intro 1 figure) As the man pulls on the rope, it creates an angle theta with the horizontal. The end of the rope is located at x=2.90 m from the shed and y=1.00 m off the ground. The man pulls on the rope with a force of magnitude F=125 N.

What is the contribution to the moment about point O made by the x component of the force F at point A? What is the contribution to the moment about point O made by the y component of the force F at point A? What is the total moment M due to the force F about point O? Assume that moments acting counterclockwise about point O are positive whereas moments acting clockwise are negative.
