Question
Find the force $\mathbf{F}$ that will produce equilibrium in each force diagram.
Step 1
Resolve every known force into x and y components: for a force Fi at angle Īøi measured from +x, Fi,x = Fi cos Īøi, Fi,y = Fi sin Īøi. Write the unknown force F as components Fx and Fy (Fx = F cos Īø, Fy = F sin Īø). Show more…
