2. Determine the projection of force F = 400 N acting along line AC of the pipe assembly.
Express the result as a Cartesian vector.
3. Determine the angle θ between the two cables attached to the post.
4. Determine the angle u between cables AB and AC.
5. The members of a truss are connected to the gusset plate. If the forces are concurrent
at point O, determine the magnitudes of F and T for equilibrium. Take θ = 30°.
6. The un-stretched length of spring AB is 3 m. If the block is held in the equilibrium
position shown, determine the mass of the block at D and the un-stretched length of
spring AC.
