Further Mathematics—Pending OP Reply [College level Intro to Statics] computing the resultant force based on the given diagram
Idk if this is allowed here..Its straight forward "determine the resultant force acting on the hook in cartesian notation", I dont know if its my angles or if I am skipping a step but 490, 117, -266 sure aint it (per person's mastering) can anyone see and point out where I went wrong? Maybe I'm not doing my computing right or ive set up wrong. Ive been on this problem for 1.5 hours.. i dont know why. This is an online class so all I have is a textbook and dr Hanson videos, which are helpful so im confused on why im struggling so much? All im looking for is a point in the right direction. For now ill move onto the next problem but it is just the same so may post it as well 😅
