Finding smallest forces required to produce a given moment

An FRC team's success should not be measured in how many robots it can build or how many blue banners it can collect. It should be measured by how many engineers (and other professionals) it 'builds'. - jvriezen [more]

Re: Finding smallest forces required to produce a given moment

i was going to go to bed but now you have be thinking about this...give me a few mins and i should have something forward. My initial thoughts are about the fact that Fa and Fd are equal and act in the same direction so using Sum of the moments= 0 you can get your required force....let me play with this a bit.

edit: sorry dude my brain isn't working this second but i will look at it in the morning for ya. I hope it isn't due at 8 am
