Problem 1
If the resultant FR of the two forces acting on the log is to be directed along the positive x-axis and
have a magnitude of 10 kN, determine the angle θ of the cable, attached to B such that the force
FB in this cable is minimum. What is the magnitude of the force in each cable for this situation?
Problem 2
Determine the magnitude and coordinate direction angles of the resultant force of the two forces
acting on the sign at point A.
