Thank you for the video, there is something I cannot give an answer to on my own, why are we only considering one part of the pliers , my first thought is that we are applying 2 forces from two different ends of the pliers, but in several videos I don't see anyone considering it that way. Someone could please shed some light on this?

Can't we take F in the opposite direction for the first question because there is a moment around the point A
