Study Notes

Problem Statement

  • Determine the resultant force's magnitude, direction, and location relative to the origin 'O'.
  • The forces and their positions are provided in a 2D coordinate system.

Force Descriptions

  • A 60 KN force acts vertically upwards at point B (-2,0).
  • A 30 KN force acts at a 30° angle to the positive x-axis at point A (1,1).
  • A 50 KN force acts horizontally to the left at point (0,-2).
  • A 40 KN force acts at a 45° angle below the negative x-axis at point D (1,-1).
