QUESTION:
Determine the moment of force F about point O. The force has a magnitude of 800 N and coordinate direction angles of \(\alpha = 60^{\circ}\), \(\beta = 120^{\circ}\), \(\gamma = 45^{\circ}\). Express the result as a Cartesian vector.
ANSWER:
Problem 4-37
Determine the moment of force F about point O. The force has a magnitude of 800 N and coordinate direction angles of a = 60, b = 120, g = 45. Express the result as a Cartesian vector.
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1 of 2
To begin this problem we begin with identifying the position vector for the moment arm.
Using the given coordinate angles we can find the force vector
