MATLAB. A three vector force system has forces as outlined, use a three element vector to represent the x, y, and z terms respectively, F = [x_value, y_value, z_value]. Find the resultant force when:
F1 has a magnitude of 120 N and is in the x-y plane, 35 degrees BELOW the positive x axis,
F2 has a magnitude of 810 N and is in the x-z plane, 100 degrees ABOVE the positive x axis, and
F3 has a magnitude of 535 N and is in the y-z plane, 72 degrees ABOVE the positive y axis.
%use the variable F for the resultant force, make sure it is set up as F = [X Y Z]
i hope it is understandable that the forces will have components on the axes. from that we can get the x,y,z components of the force vectors.
Here is the solution as the format of F=[x-component y-component z-component]
