2. Lecture Outline Equilibrium of a particle - three dimensional problems.

3. Equilibrium of a particle – three dimensions R= R x + R y + R z = = R x i + R y j + R z k =  F x i +  F y j +  F k k The equation can only be satisfied if: R x = R x i=  F x i=0 R y = R y j=  F y j=0 R z = R z j=  F z j=0

4. Example – P3-22 Struts AB and AC of Fig. P3-22 can transmit only axial tensile compressive forces. Determine the forces in struts AB and AC and the tension in cable AD when force F=1250 N.
