Question
Determine the magnitude and direction $\theta$ of $\mathbf{F}$ so that the particle is in equilibrium.
Step 1
This means that the sum of the x-components of all forces and the sum of the y-components of all forces must both be zero. Mathematically, this can be represented as: $\Sigma F_x = 0$ and $\Sigma F_y = 0$ Show more…
