The problem solving process is as follows:
(1) According to the parallelogram rule, vector F 1+ vector F2= vector f (next, directly omit two lines of the vector? )
Then square both sides at the same time to get F 1? +2F 1F2+F2? =F? = 10000N
F 1? = 1600,F2? =4900
∴2f 1f2=3500,f 1f2= 1750
And ∵ f1F2 = | f1| F2 | * cosθ = 40 * 70 * cosθ = 2800cosθ =1750.
∴cosθ= 1750/2800=5/8。 The first problem is solved. By the way, there is no need to ask for the exact value of θ.
(2) ∵ vector F 1+ vector F2= vector f.
∴ vector F 1= vector f- vector F2
Then both sides are squared at the same time,
Get F 1? =F? -2F*F2+F2? =F? -2|F|*|F2|*cosβ+F2? = 10000-2 * 100 * 70 * cosβ+4900 = f 1? = 1600
Simplified to-14000cosβ =1600-14900 =-13300.
∴cosβ= 13300/ 14000= 19/20
It's done. Well, I'm a freshman now. I learned this last semester, and I almost forgot. . . .
I'm afraid you don't understand, so the process is a bit verbose. Never mind. Ask me if you don't understand anything!
