(a) Find the magnitudes of the forces F1 and F2 that add to give the total force Ftot shown in Figure 4.35. This may be done either graphically or by using trigonometry.

(b) Show graphically that the same total force is obtained independent of the order of addition of F1and F2 .

(c) Find the direction and magnitude of some other pair of vectors that add to give Ftot . Draw these to scale on the same drawing used in part (b) or a similar picture.

(a) The magnitude of force F1 is 16.38 N, and the magnitude of force F2 is 11.47 N.

(c) the magnitude of F1鈥 is 17.43 N and the magnitude of F2鈥 is 9.80 N.

Step by step solution

01

(a) Determine the magnitude of the forces F1 and F2

Since F1 is the x-component of the total force and F2 is the y-component of the total force, therefore,

F1=Ftotcos鈥︹︹︹︹︹. (i)

F2=Ftotsin鈥︹︹︹︹︹. (ii)

Here, F1 is the horizontal force, Ftot is the total force, is the angle between the total force and the horizontal force, and F2 is the vertical force.

Substitute 20 N for Ftot, and35forin equation (i), and we get,

F1=20鈥凬cos35=20鈥凬0.819=16.38鈥凬

Substitute 20 N for Ftot, and35forin equation (ii), and we get,

F2=20鈥凬sin35=20鈥凬0.57357=11.47鈥凬

Hence, the magnitude of force F1 is 16.38 N, and the magnitude of force F2 is 11.47 N.

02

(b) Graphical representation by changing the order of addition of F1 and F2

Here, figure (a) is the same as figure (b).

Hence, the same total force is obtained by changing the order of F1 and F2.

03

(c) Graphical representation by changing the order of addition of F1 and F2

Let F1鈥 be the force at an angle of 20with the horizontal. Then, calculate its magnitude.

F1'=F1cos20

Substitute 16.38 N for F1.

F1'=16.38鈥凬cos20=16.380.9397=17.43鈥凬

And F2鈥 is at an angle of 90虋 from the horizontal. Then, calculate its magnitude.

F2'=Ftotal2F1'2

Substitute 20 N for Ftotal and 17.43 N for F1鈥.

F2'=20鈥凬217.43鈥凬2=9.80鈥凬

Hence, the magnitude of F1鈥 is 17.43 N and the magnitude of F2鈥 is 9.80 N.
