A particle is acted upon by forces F = (10N, 060º), P = (15N, 120º) and Q = (12N, 200º). Express the force that will keep the particle in equilibrium in the form xi + yj, where x and y are scalars.
17.55i + 13.78j
17.55j - 13.78i
-17.55i + 13.78j
-17.55i - 13.78j
Correct answer is B
Converting the forces to their rectangular forms
F = (10N, 060º)
Fx = 10cos60 = 5i
fy = 10sin60 = 8.66j
F = 5i + 8.66j
P = (15N, 120º)
Px = 15cos120 = -7.5i
py = 15sin120 = 12.99j
P = -7.5i + 12.99j
Q = (12N, 200º)
Qx = 12cos200 = -11.28i
Qy = 12sin200 = -4.1j
Q = -11.28i -4.1j
The resultant force = F + P + Q
R = 5i + 8.66j + (-7.5i + 12.99j) + (-11.28i -4.1j)
R = -13.78i + 17.55j
