    Resolve a force into three parts (3D)

    It is visible from the IMG 0001. Sin γ = 9 / 17 (right triangle with sides 14,422; 9 and 17. It is visible which side is 9, the hyp. is 17) That's what I used to find Fz Cos γ = 14.422 / 17 (same right triangle; 14.422 calculated from the rectangle in the XY-plane) Sin β = 12 / 14.422...

    Resolve a force into three parts (3D)

    I also thought it will be straightforward, but I seem to be doing something wrong. I have the answers and: the part parallel to the y-axis is 42.2 j N. I have absolutely no idea how to reach this answer. As mentioned about, I found Fy = 120 the part parallel to OQ is 97.5 * unit vector...

    Resolve a force into three parts (3D)

    Hey! I have been trying to solve this problem without success. Any help will be appreciated Homework Statement Resolve the 170 N force into three parts: one of which is parallel to OQ, another parallel to OP, and the third parallel to the y axis. (See the graph) Are these the components of F...
