Chapter 4, Problem 62P
A marble is thrown as a projectile at an angle above the horizontal. Draw its path during the flight Choose six different positions along the path so that one of them is at the highest point. For each position, indicate the direction of the marble's velocity, acceleration, and all of the forces exerted on it by other objects. Ignore the resistive force exerted by the air on the marble.

1. Three forces act on particle A located at the origin of an x-y coordinate system. Force B acts at
140⁰ from the positive x-axis, and force C acts at 15° from the positive x-axis. The weight acts
down with a magnitude of W = 100 kN. Use the equations of equilibrium to determine the
magnitudes of B and C such that particle A is in equilibrium.
For problems 2-5, consider the following scenario.
Equilibrium of a particle: EF=0: EFx=0 and ΣFy=0. Dimensions are: h=2.5 ft, d₁ = 4.75 ft, and d₂ = 3 ft.
