This document summarizes the solution to an exercise involving free-body diagrams of levers. It includes:
(1) Drawing free-body diagrams of levers BCD and calculating the forces and torques on them.
(2) Using the free-body diagram equations to solve for the magnitude and direction of the force on lever C, finding it to be 449 N at an angle of 32.3 degrees.
(3) Noting that the solution is from Chapter 4, Solution 19 of the textbook "Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics and Dynamics, 8/e".
