n), be the forces of the given system acting on abody not shown; O the point through which R is to pass; and OX, OYand OZ any convenient axes of reference. Let Pi and Qi, acting at 0(Fig. 42), be equal and parallel to Fi; similarily, let P2 and Q2 (not shown)act at O, and be equal and parallel to… … Fig. 42 Fig. 43 Fig. 44 P2, Pz, etc. (the concurrent forces), are respectively equal to the axial com-ponents of Pi, P2, P3, etc. (the given forces); hence if SP^, 2P„ and 2Padenote the algebraic sums of the x, y, and z components of the given forces,then Px = 2P:,, Ry = ZFy, and P, = ZP,; also…
