Determine the magnitude of Q if the particle is in equilibrium and if θ =30.4°, P = 276 , a=7, and b=15. Round off only on the final answer expressed in 3 decimals.
A metal bar is in the ry-plane with one end of the bar at the origin. A force F = (7.00 N)î+ (-3.00 N)j is applied to the bar at the point I = 3.00 m, y = 4.00 m. (a) In terms of unit vectors î and j, what is the position vector f for the point where the force is applied? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the torque with respect to the origin produced by F?
