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 ? = 30?, determine the moment of this cylinder force acting on pin B about ( a ) point O and ( b ) poin
