Chapter 3.4, Problem 7FP, Determine the magnitude of forces F1, F2, F3, so that the particle is held in equilibrium.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine
The magnitude of forces F1, F2, and F3 for equilibrium.

Answer to Problem 7FP

The magnitude of force F1 is 466N_.

The magnitude of force F2 is 879N_.

The magnitude of force F3 is 776N_.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given force values are 600 N and 900 N.

Explanation:

Show the free body diagram of the forces acting on the particle as in Figure 1.

Engineering Mechanics: Statics, Chapter 3.4, Problem 7FP

Using Figure (1),

Determine the magnitude of forces using equation of equilibrium.

Force along x direction:

[(35)F3](35)+600F2=00.36F3F2=600 (I)

Force along y direction:

(45)F1[35F3](45)=00.8F10.48F3=00.8F1=0.48F3F1=0.480.8F3

F1=0.6F3 (II)

Force along z direction:

(45)F3+(35)F1900=00.8F3+0.6F1=900 (III)

Conclusion:

Substitute 0.6F3 for F1 in Equation (III).

0.8F3+0.6(0.6F3)=900F3(0.8+0.36)=900F3=9001.16F3=776N

Thus, the magnitude of force F3 is 776N_.

Substitute 776N for F3 in Equation (II).

F1=0.6×776=466N

Thus, the magnitude of force F1 is 466N_.

Substitute 776N for F3 in Equation (I).

0.36(776)F2=600279.36+600=F2F2=879N

Thus, the magnitude of force F2 is 879N_.
