While cutting a piece of paper, a person exerts the two indicated forces on a paper cutter. Reduce the two forces to an equivalent force-couple system at corner O and then specify the coordinates of the point P in the x-y plane through which the resultant of the two forces passes. The cutting surface is 30" x 30".

Concept explainers

System of Forces

A force is an external influence or agent that changes the state of a system. According to Newton's second law, the force applied to a body is proportional to the change in momentum of a body. Hence, whenever a force is applied to a body, its momentum changes. If the body is at rest, under the action of force, its state of rest changes to motion. In other words, the magnitude of the momentum of the body changes from zero to a measurable value. Similarly, if the body possesses some initial velocity, it has some associated momentum, the effect of force can cause the body to halt or come to rest, that is, the momentum reduces to zero.
