Determine the angle ases OA of the flag pole and each cable 15m 400 mm 6 m 250mm Prob. 2-127 Proh. 2-1 80 CHAPTER 2 FORCE VECTORS REVIEW PROBLEMS 2-131. Determine the magnitude and coordinate direction angles of F so that the resultant of the three forces acts along the positive y axis and has a magnitade of 600 b direction angles of F so that the resultant of the three zero r,-180lb sr -300Explanation / Answer
2.127
the slanging edge of the bracket has position vector ( wrt origin ) given by
r1 = 400i + 250j
the other slanting edge abovwe the xy plane has the p[osition coordinate given by]
r2 = 300j + 50k
hence angle between these two edges is given by
theta
theta = arcos(r1.r2/|r1||r2|)
theta = arcos(250*300/sqrt(160000 + 250^2)*sqrt(90000 + 2500))
theta = 58.480566 deg
2.132
form the given figure
F1 = -180 i lb
F2 = F2cos(30)sin(40)i + F2*cos(30)cos(40)j - F2sin(30)
|F2| = 300 lb
hence
F3 = -(F1 + F2) = 12.99888i - 199.02418j + 150k lb
|F3| = sqrt(12.9988^2 + 199.024^2 + 150^2) = 249.5586531 lb
