Instructions for activity 2 of ce231, which involves solving the magnitudes of given forces and their components along specific axes. Students are required to draw the corresponding parallelograms and triangles for each problem and round off their answers to two decimal places. Three problems: determining the magnitude and direction of a force, finding the components of two forces along given axes, and calculating the forces acting at specific points to develop a force in a particular direction.

Instruction: Copy and Solve. Draw the corresponding parallelogram and triangle rules of each problem. All answers should be rounded off to 2 decimal places and enclosed your final answer in the box. I. Solve the magnitude of FR of the given forces and its direction or angle measured clockwise from + horizontal axis of the following: a. If =30deg and T= 6kN: Figure a b. Figure b c. If FB= 2kN and FR acts along u-axis, Figure c
II. Solve the magnitude of components of the following forces along the given axes. a. Components along u and v axes of 250N b. Components along u and v axes of 150N III. Solve the magnitude of the forces acting at A and B in order to develop FR directed along the +x axis. Given : FR = 950N = 50o ------------------------------------------------------nothing follows----------------------------------------------------------------
