Determine the magnitude and direction of FRSolutionthe net f
Determine the magnitude and direction of FR?
Solution
the net force along the x-direction:
Fx = 100*cos30 +200*sin20 = 155
the net force along the y-direction:
Fy = - 100*sin30 +200*cos20 = 137.94
magnitude: F = sqrt[Fx^2 + Fy^2] = 207.5 N
Direction: @ = tan-1[137.94 / 155] = 41.67o
