Step 1
For a particle to be in equilibrium in 3D space, the net force acting on it must be zero. This means that the sum of all forces in each of the three independent directions (x, y, and z) must be zero. Show more…

There are five forces being applied on a particle. If these five forces are in equilibrium, what is the x-component of the resultant vector? Assume that each force has a magnitude of 1 unit. Express your answer in 2 decimal places only. Round off your answer to two decimal places only.

Several forces act on a particle as shown in Figure $\mathrm{P} 4.3 .$ If the particle is in translational equilibrium, what are the values of $F_{3}$ (the magnitude of force 3 ) and $\theta_{3}$ (the angle that force 3 makes with the $x$ axis)?

Forces P, Q, and S of magnitudes 6.00 N, 10.00 N, and 8.00 N respectively, act on point O such that the angle made by force P is 50° counter clockwise from the positive x-axis, force Q acts at an angle of 38° counter clockwise from the negative y-axis, and force S acts at an angle of 32° counter clockwise from the positive y-axis. The magnitude of the resultant vector R is: A. 8.36 N B. 6.76 N C. 45.7 N D. 2.28 N E. 9.28 N In the van der Waals form of the gas equation, where P refers to the pressure and V refers to volume.
