Explanation Given: The magnitude of resultant force, F R = 600 N The angle between the x axes and magnitude of component force ( F 1 ) 300 lb is 30 ° . The angle between the x axes and vector force F is θ . The magnitude of component force ( F 2 ) is 200 lb . Apply the parallelogram law of addition and triangular rule. Follow the steps to draw the parallelogram law of addition. 1. First join the tails of the given components at a point to make them concurrent. 2. From the head of magnitude of vector force F 1 , draw a line parallel to the x axes. 3. From the head of magnitude of force F 2 , draw a line parallel to the y axes. 4. Join the above two lines at an intersection point to form the adjacent sides of a parallelogram. 5. Draw the resultant force F R as F R 1 at the intersection point. Show the parallelogram law of addition of vectors using above steps as in Figure (1). Show the triangular rule using Figure (1) as in Figure (2). Show the free body diagram for the condition when magnitude of vector force is minimum as in Figure (3). Conclusion: From Figure (1), Apply cosine law and calculate the resultant force F R 1 . F R 1 = ( F 1 ) 2 + ( F 2 ) 2 − 2 F 1 F 2 cos θ (I) Substitute 300 lb for F 1 , 200 lb for F 2 , and 60 ° for θ in Equation (I). F R 1 = ( 300 ) 2 + ( 200 ) 2 − 2 ( 300 ) ( 200 ) ( cos 60 ° ) = 90 , 000 + 40 , 000 − 60 , 000 = 70 , 000 = 264.6 lb From Figure (2), Apply the sine law using Figure (2) to calculate the angle θ of the third chain measured clockwise from the positive x axis
