Answer to Question #171654 in Mechanics | Relativity for Bhawna singh

Question

The resultant of the two forces and couple may be represented by a wrench. Determine the vector expression for the moment M of the wrench and find the coordinates of the point P in the x-z plane through which the resultant force of the wrench passes.

Answer 1

The coordinates of the point P:

$x=z=0.1\ m$

$M=(100\cdot0.1)i+(20-100\cdot0.1)j=10i+10j$
