Question
**Title: Determining the Resultant Force and Coordinates** **Problem Statement:** Determine the resultant of the forces shown in Figure P6-13. Find the coordinates. **Diagram Description:** Figure P6-13 illustrates a three-dimensional coordinate system with forces acting along different axes. The coordinate system is defined by three axes: x, y, and z. - A force of **10 kN** is acting along the positive y-axis. - A force of **15 kN** is acting along the positive x-axis. - A force of **25 kN** is acting along the negative z-axis. Each force is represented by an arrow starting from the origin (the point where the x, y, and z axes intersect) and pointing in the direction of the force's action. **Figure Reference:** This is depicted in **Figure P6-13**. **Task:** To solve this problem, you will need to find the resultant force vector by summing the individual force vectors. After calculating the resultant force, determine its coordinates. --- This explanation allows students to visualize the problem and understand the context of the forces acting on the given system. They can proceed by using vector addition methods to find the resultant force and then calculate its coordinates relative to the origin.
