Expert Solution
Step 1

Given

Determine the magnitude and coordinate direction angles of the resultant force, and sketch this vector on the coordinate system, as following below.

Physics homework question answer, step 1, image 1

 

Step 2

Here, the forces in Cartesian vector notation:

F1 = 400 sin 60 cos20 i - sin 60 sin 20 j + cos 60 k F1 =325.52 i - 118.48 j+ 200 k NF2 = 500 sin 60 i+ cos 60 j + cos 135 k F2 =250 i + 250 j-353.55 k N

Now, the resultant force is written as shown below,

FR = F1 + F2FR = 325.52 i - 118.48 j + 200 k+250 i + 250 j -353.55 kFR = 575.52 i + 131.52 j -153.55 k N
