Consider the cantilever beam shown in Figure P4. Two forces are applied on the beam: F1 acts at point B in the positive y-direction, and F2 acts at point C in the negative x-direction, as shown.
If F1 = 1655 N and F2 = 2148 N, determine the reaction moment (MA) at the fixed support A. Use the sign convention for forces and moments shown in the figure (i.e. a counter clockwise moment is considered positive).
