Question

On step 5: F2=AC x F2 How is that possible? That does not make any sense. This is across product? That is what is being implied using "x" Earlier you said F2 = 36.5 and now you are sayingF2= a vector....interesting. I understand you are trying to get it in vector form, but manypeople will look at this with a bit of confusion. On step 5: F2=AC x F2 How is that possible? That does not make any sense.

Explanation / Answer

hi, You should be able to understand the staticshomework problem you are asking about by following the stepsbelow: Resolving force F in terms ofrectangular components F = F where = unit vector along the line of action ofF            F = magnitude of the force (it is a dot product) F = (36.5)(38.4i - 44k) / 58.4      = 24i - 27.5k     "I hope this helps! Best of luck withthe rest of your coursework."            F = magnitude of the force (it is a dot product) F = (36.5)(38.4i - 44k) / 58.4      = 24i - 27.5k     "I hope this helps! Best of luck withthe rest of your coursework."
