A stage turntable can rotate about a central pivot. Three forces act on the turntable as shown in the table.
| Force | Size of force | Perpendicular distance from the pivot | Direction of moment |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 45 N | 0.28 m | clockwise |
| B | 30 N | 0.16 m | clockwise |
| C | 60 N | not given | anticlockwise |
The turntable does not rotate.
Calculate the perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of force C.
