Question

Pralber. 2-2R/20 2-31. Three cables puil on the pipe such that they create a resultant force having a magnitude of 900 lb . If iwo of the cables are subjected to known Iorces, as shown in the figure, determinc the angle \( \theta \) of the third cable so that the magnitude of force \( \mathbf{F} \) in this cable is a minimum. All lorces lie in the \( x-y \) plane. What is the magnitude of F? Hint: Fiss find the resultant of the two known forces.
