Example
If F=5 kN and = 30, determine the magnitude of
the resultant force and its direction, measured counter-
clockwise from the positive x axis
N19
SOLUTION
Scalar Notation. Summing the force components along x and y axes algebraically
by referring to Fig. a.
(FR),= XF,: (FR), = 5 sin 30 + 6
4 sin 15= 7.465 kN
+1(FR), = EF: (Fr), = 4 cos 15 + 5 cos 30 = 8.194 kN 1
By referring to Fig. b, the magnitude of the resultant force is
V7.4652 + 8.194 = 11.08 kN = 11.1 kN Ans.
