A bent tube is attached to a wall with brackets as shown. A force of \( F = 670 \) lb is applied to the end of the tube with directions indicated by the dimensions in the figure.
**a.)** Determine the force vector \(\vec{F}\) in Cartesian components.
**b.)** Resolve the force vector \(\vec{F}\) into vector components parallel and perpendicular to the position vector \(\vec{r}_{DA}\). Express each of these vectors in Cartesian components.
**Diagram Description:**
The diagram depicts a bent tube structure attached to a wall with brackets. The tube segments are labeled as follows:
- \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \) represent key points.
- The dimensions for the tube's position relative to the wall are marked: \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) axes.
The specific directions are given as:
- \( a \), \( b \), \( c \), \( d \), \( g \), \( h \)
An arrow at point \( A \) indicates the force vector \( F \) acting diagonally relative to the \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) axes.
**Values for dimensions are given in a table (not visible in image).** Note the figure may not be to scale.
The coordinate axes are shown for aligning Cartesian unit vectors.
