Problem 227
Two forces P and Q pass through a point A which is 4 m to the right of and 3 m above a moment center O. Force P is 890 N directed up to the right at 30° with the horizontal and force Q is 445 N directed up to the left at 60° with the horizontal. Determine the moment of the resultant of these two forces with respect to O.
Problem 226
In Fig. P-226 assuming counterclockwise moments as positive, compute the moment of force F = 200 kg and force P = 165 kg about points A, B, C, and D.
Problem 017
If the force F shown in Fig. P-017 is resolved into components parallel to the bars AB and BC, the magnitude of the component parallel to bar BC is 4 kN. What are the magnitudes of F and its component parallel to AB?
Problem 013
Three vectors A, B, and C are shown in the figure below. Find one vector (magnitude and direction) that will have the same effect as the three vectors shown in Fig. P-013 below.
Problem 009
The body on the 30° incline in Fig. P-009 is acted upon by a force P inclined at 20° with the horizontal. If P is resolved into components parallel and perpendicular to incline and the value of the parallel component is 1800 N, compute the value of the perpendicular component and that of P.
Problem 007
A block is resting on an incline of slope 5:12 as shown in Fig. P-007. It is subjected to a force F = 500 N on a slope of 3:4. Determine the components of F parallel and perpendicular to the incline.
