so then the drag is 130 and the lift is 180 and to determine s I can take moments at point where W is pointing is this right?

Homework Statement If the engine thrust is F(T)=130kN and the plane's weight is W=180kN,determine the atmospheric drag F(D) and the wing lift F(L). What is the distance s to the line of action of the drag force? The Attempt at a Solution Well I have trouble with this question...

ok thks ill try that

Hello, so I have a statics question which I am having trouble with. The question is : A boom is supported by a ball and socket joint at A and a guy wire at B.If the loads in the cables are each 8kN and they lie in a plane which is parallel to the x-z plane, what is the magnitude of the reaction...
