Problem 2 (15 pt.) - The shaft OBCD is acted upon by 2 forces \( \mathrm{T}=50 \mathrm{lbs} \)., and \( \mathrm{F}=200 \mathrm{lbs} \)., as shown. Find: a) The moment (vector [rectangular components], magnitude, and direction) about point \( \mathrm{A} \) of the 2 forces. b) The moment (vector [rectangular components], magnitude, and direction) about line CA caused by the force \( \mathrm{F} \) acting at \( \mathrm{D} \). c) Shortest distance between point A and the line of action of the force \( \mathrm{F} \).
