Replace the loading acting on the beam shown in (Figure 1) by a single resultant force - 4-131

Replace the loading acting on the beam shown in (Figure 1) by a single resultant force. Take F1 = 350 N, F2 = 350 N, and F3 = 600 N.
Determine the magnitude of the resultant force.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Determine the angle between the resultant force and the x axis.
Express your answer in degrees to three significant figures.
Specify where the force acts, measured from end A.
Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

I’m glad it helped!

[@gunluk1214]

why didn't we take Ax, Ay and By into consideration when finding the resultant forces

great video!

Thank you!

[@willdagrub8675]

can you implement something like this in code?@@calcgang

I’m not sure what you mean
