the xy-plane through which the resultant force passes. In other r^ 50 ANALYTICAL MECHANICS words, {x,y) is the point of application of the resultant force.The resultant force is evidently parallel to the given forces.The last two equations may be written in the followingforms x = RR (XIII)… … Fig. 37. X — Xi But since Xi — x and x — Xi are thedistances of F2 and Fi from R,we have El = 4?F2 di or Fidi = Fidi. Therefore the distances of the resultant from the given forces are in-versely proportional to the magnitudes of the latter. PROBLEMS. 1. Find the resultant force and the resultant…
