'03: If F2 150 Ib and 0 = 55" , determine the magnitude and direction measured clockwise from the positive x-axis of the resultant force of the three forces acting on the bracket'
Added by Janet S.
Step 1
For F1, it is given that it acts along the positive x-axis, so its components are: F1x = 150 lb F1y = 0 For F2, we need to find the components using the angle θ = 55°: F2x = F2 * cos(θ) = 150 * cos(55°) = 85.96 lb F2y = F2 * sin(θ) = 150 * sin(55°) = 122.47 Show more…

For three concurrent forces acting on a bracket, determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force, measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis.

If $F=5 \mathrm{kN}$ and $\theta=30^{\circ},$ determine the magnitude of the resultant force and its direction, measured counterclockwise from the positive $x$ axis.
Three forces, when added, produce a resultant that is 100 N, pointing 63 degrees above the positive x-axis. If one of the forces is 50 N in the positive y-direction and another is 100 N in a direction 45 degrees below the positive x-axis, what are the magnitude and direction of the third force?
