Question

Determine the resultant R. Compute magnitude, sense and angle of inclination with horizontal x.

The image is a vector diagram illustrating two forces acting at a point, labeled \( O \). It features a Cartesian coordinate system with positive and negative axes: X(+) and X(-), Y(+) and Y(-). - **Force \( F_1 \):** - Magnitude: 350 kips - Direction: Along a vector that is resolved into a right triangle with sides proportional to 5, 12, and 13, suggesting its direction can be calculated using the ratio of these sides. - **Force \( F_2 \):** - Magnitude: 300 kips - Direction: 60 degrees from the negative X-axis. The forces are shown as arrows originating from point \( O \), with \( F_1 \) pointing towards the first quadrant and \( F_2 \) pointing towards the second quadrant, at a specified angle from the negative X-axis. The diagram visually represents the resolution of forces and may be used to analyze the vector components along the X and Y axes.
