EXAMPLE PROBLEM $2-8$

A force $F$ is applied at a point in a body as shown in Fig. $2-31.$

a$.$ Determine the $x$ and $y$ scalar components of the force.

b$.$ Determine the $x^{\text{'}}$ and $y^{\text{'}}$ scalar components of the force.

c$.$ Express the force $F$ in Cartesian vector form for the xy$-$ and 'x'y'axes. $$

$F_x=$Fcos$x,F_y=$Fcos$y$

$F_x=450cos(6$del$)=211\mathrm{.}26$

$F_y=450sin(62)=397\mathrm{.}33$
