The following forces are acting on the bracket below. The bracket has a
width w of 2 inches and a height h of 3 inches. The bracket is in
equilibrium (not accelerating). Determine F3y knowing F1x-98 lbf and
F1y=195 lbf. For this question, what is F3.y in Ibf? Note that the y-
direction is pointing up, so if the force is pushing down on the bracket, it
has a negative magnitude.
