ME $202$ Statics

Problem Set #$3$ Due: Wednesday, September $11,2024$

Please Note: I recommend that you use a vector approach for $3$D problems. I recommend exploring both the scalar and vector approaches for $2$D problems.

If your answer is a vector, express your answer in $2$D or $3$D Vector Notation, unless otherwise instructed!

Problem $3\mathrm{.}4$ from the course textbook. Please use the label $F_A$ for the force at $A$ in your symbolic concept equation.

Problem $3\mathrm{.}22$ from the course textbook. Please use the label $T_{BC}$ for the tension force in cable $BC$ in your symbolic concept equation.

Problem $3\mathrm{.}39$ from the course textbook. Please use the label $T_{AC}$ for the tension force in cable $AC$ in your symbolic concept equation. Keep in mind that $AC$ or $AB$ with an arrow or line above has NO meaning in our class.

Add part c$)$ express the projection from part b$)$ as a vector in $3$D Vector Notation.
