Answer problem 3
Extracted text: 2. The resultant of the concurrent forces shown in figure below is 300 lb pointing up along the y-axis. Compute the values of F and e required to give this resultant. ( Answer: F= 512 Ib up to the right at e, = 55.2°) Forces X-comp y-comp 500 b 500 Ib 240 lb 240 lb Rx= 0 Ry = 300 lb R= 300 b, e = 90 (upward) Page | 1 3. Repeat problem No. 2 if the resultant is 400 lb down to the right at 60° with the x-axis. Forces x-comp усomp 500 lb 500 Ib 240 lb Rx = Ry = 240 lb R= 400 lb, e = 60°
