1) The magnitude of the resultant of the three coplanar forces A, B and C shown in the
figure is most nearly

A) 7 N B) 7.8 N C) 9.2 N D) 10.3 N

2) Which of the following is a unit vector perpendicular to the plane determined by the
vectors A = 2i + 4j and B = i + j - k?

3) Resolve the 300 N force into two components, one along line P and the other along
line Q. Note that F, P and Q are coplanar.

between the force and the positive y-axis?
A) 200 B) 660 C) 700 D) 1100
