Problem 5) There are three forces acting at point D on the tower shown in Figure 1.5 below.
Express each force in Cartesian vector form. Find the resultant of these three forces and express
it in Cartesian vector form. What is the angle between the resultant force and the z-axis? What is
the angle that the horizontal components (i.e., just the x and y-components of the force vector)
of the resultant force make with the x-axis?
