QA1: Determine the moment of the force P about point A using a vector formulation. The magnitude of P is 350 N and acts at point C. Express the result as a Cartesian vector. QA2: A door is held open by the cable AB. If the tension in the cable is T = 40 lb, determine the magnitude of the moment caused by T about the y-axis. Use a vector formulation.
