Question
Two forces were acting together on a certain point (point e) in a mechanical system; force L and force
M.
The magnitude of force L is (0.2 N), and on a 2D plane force L is directed from point (–2, –3)
to (0,1).
The magnitude of force M is (0.5 N), and on a 2D plane force M is directed from point (–4, 2 )
to (2, 2).
Solve the following:
a) Find the unit vectors of both force L and force M, represent them in terms of the unit vectors
î and ſ.
b) Find the vector representations of force L and force M in terms of the unit vectors î, and ĵ.
c) Find the vector representation of the resultant force acting on point e, represent the net force
using the unit vectors î, and ĵ.
d) Determine the work done by the resultant force, F, in moving an object through a displacement
r=1 î+2ĵm.
Show your full analytical solution to all parts.
