QUESTION:
Determine the magnitude and orientation \(\theta\) of \(F_B\) so that the resultant force is directed along the positive y axis and has a magnitude of 1500 N.
ANSWER:
Step 1 of 4
Transform each force and resultant force to a cartesian vector which is their horizontal and vertical components with variable i for horizontal and for vertical. Note that positive values are those forces going to the right and upward while negative values are those forces going to the left and downward.
