Name: ____________________________ Course/Year: ______________________ Date: ________________ Score: _______

Quiz Number 2
Problem Solving: Solve the following problems below orderly and neatly. Encircle your final answer.
1. Determine the resultant R of the four forces transmitted to the gusset
plane if q = 45 as shown in fig (6.32) and the angle. (7 points)
2. Determine the resultant of four forces acting on a body shown in fig
(6.38). (7 points)
3. Four coplanar forces are acting at a point. Three forces have magnitude
of 20, 50 and 20N at angles of 45, 200 and 270 respectively. Fourth force
is unknown. Resultant force has magnitude of 50N and acts along x-axis.
Determine the unknown force and its direction from x-axis. (10 points)
