Ball of a trailer hitch


The ball of a trailer hitch is subjected to a force F. If failure takes place when the moment of F about point A reaches 11250 in lb, find out the largest value F may have and specify the value of α for which the moment about A is the largest. Note that the value of F you find out must not produce a moment about A which exceeds 11250 in lb for any possible value of α.

F = ?
α = ?
