The screw eye in Fig. 2-11a is subjected to two forces, F1 and F 2. Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force. Figure 2-11a (Hibbeler, 2010)   2. Resolve the horizontal 6OO-lb force in Fig. 2- 12a into components acting along the u and v axes and determine the magnitude of these components. Figure 2-12a (Hibbeler, 2010)   3. Determine the magnitude of the component force F in Fig. 2- 13a and the magnitude of the resultant force FR if FR is directed along the positive y axis. Figure 2-13a (Hibbeler, 2010)   4. It is required that the resultant force acting on the eyebolt in Fig. 2- 14a be directed along the positive x axis and that F2 have a minimum magnitude. Determine this magnitude. the angle ɵ, and the corresponding resultant force. Figure 2-14a (Hibbeler, 2010)   5. Determine the x and y components of F1 and F2 acting on the boom shown in Fig. 2- 18a. Express each force as a Cartesian vector. Figure 2-18a (Hibbeler, 2010)   6. The link in Fig.2- 19a is subjected to two forces FI and F2. Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force. Figure 2-19a (Hibbeler, 2010)   7. The end of the boom O in Fig. 2- 2Oa is subjected to three concurrent and coplanar forces. Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force.
