Coverage: 3D Forces, Dot Product, & Equilibrium of a Particle
PROBLEM SOLVING. Solve the following problems in a neat and organized manner. Arrange your solutions accordingly.
Maximize the use of two columns. Provide free-body diagrams as needed. Box your final answers.
No units, no box = ZERO.
1. Two forces F and G are applied to a hook. Force F is shown in the figure and it makes 60° angle with the x-y
plane. Force G is pointing up and has a magnitude of 80lb with α = 111° and β = 69.3°. Find the resultant force in
Cartesian vector form. (10 pts)
2. Given the force acting on the pole, find the (a) angle between the force vector and the pole, (b) the magnitude
of the projection of the force along the pole AO, as well as (c) FAO (parallel) and (d) F (perpendicular). (20 pts)
3. Sack A weighs 20lb and geometry is as shown. Find the (a) forces in the cables and (b) weight of sack B. (20 pts)
