Determination of components of the forces in equilibrium.

Transcribed Image Text:DATA:
Determination of components of the forces in equilibrium:
1-In the first part of the experiment, assume the equilibrium is achieved with the following three forces
given in the following figure. Note that the first force is horizontal, the second force is vertical and the third
force makes an angle with the positive horizontal axis. Three different measurements for the forces and the
angle is given in the following table. Using the equilibrium state, find the components of the forces for each
measurement.

2-In the second part of the experiment, the equilibrium can be realized when the forces are generated by
several masses as F = mg. Three different measurements of the angle and the masses are given in the
following table for the forces, which are oriented as shown in the left. Using the equilibrium state, find the
components of the forces for each measurement.

3-In the third part of the experiment, the equilibrium can be realized when the forces are generated by.
several masses as F = mg. In this case, the first force makes an angle with the negative horizontal axis as well
as the third force as shown in the following figure. Three different measurements of the angles and the masses
are given in the following table. Using the equilibrium state, find the components of the forces for each
measurement.
