Three chains act on the bracket such that they create a resultant force having a magnitude of 7271b. If two of the chains are the third chain measured clockwise from the positive x axis, so that subjected to known forces, as shown, determine the angle 8 the magnitude of force F in this chain is a minimum. All forces lie in the x-y plane. What is the magnitude of F? 000 200 lb 30 300 lb

Question
Three chains act on the bracket such that they create a resultant force having a magnitude of 727 1b. If two of the chains are subjected to known forces, as shown, determine the angle of the third chain measured clockwise from the positive x axis, so that the magnitude of force F in this chain is a minimum. All forces lie in the x-y plane. What is the magnitude of F? 300 lb 30° K CEC 200 lb

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that:

Resultant of the forces = 727 lb

Forces acting in the two chains are 200 lb and 300 lb

It is required to determine the value of θ and the minimum value of F acting in the third chain.
