You're very welcome! Statics can be really difficult if you don't understand the beginning stuff since it keeps building on it. I hope you understood every thing and I wish you the best with your studies! :)

minute 4:15 You assume Fba = 15kN and get Fca to be 0 and Fda to be 15kn, my question is, what if we assume each of the cables are supporting 15 K, using the maximal tension force yielding a higher mass for the plate?
The scenario you mention cannot exist. It's not possible for all 3 cables to carry 15 kN each. You can check that by easily plugging in 15 to all of the forces, and then seeing if you get zero, which you won't. This is similar to 0-Force members in a truss. Some members simply will not carry a force. The given dimensions of this plate, along with the locations of the cables constraints cable CA to carry no force.
Some are also professors, and some are past students. For professors, they have to teach a lot of theory and proofs and have a lot of cover in a very short timespan. :) I am happy to hear these videos are helpful to you, keep up the awesome work!
So you can solve them like you would any 3 equations with 3 unknowns. Using substitution or elimination. I think it's probably hard to see, but if you write these values with x and y instead, it might make it easier. For example, we can say F_CA = x, and F_DA = y. Then our first equation can be written as 15(4/14)+(6/14)x+(4/14)y=0, you can even convert the fractions to decimal form if it's easier. So the same equation can be written as 4.29+0.43x+0.28y=0. Writing the 3 equations like this will make it much easier to solve by isolating for one variable, plugging it into the next. Let me know if you need further help.
Hey man, awesome video, it was extremely useful, and I tried to solve the problem on my own after viewing it to make sure I understood it. However, I believe there is a small error at 2:23 where F(ac) and F(ad) should be 58.4 instead of 54.8.

Just a quick question regarding the last simulation: why do not we use 1 as the position of the the 2 springs along the x and y axis even though we know it must be greater than 2m, since this was the initial length in an unstreched condition. 5:50
I am not sure I understand your question. Are you saying use 1 for FOB or FOA? Regardless, using your method, do you get the same answer? If yes, then your way works too.
1:28 why doesn't the W component have a j vector? i see it as where all of the axes come together is the origin, so in my way of thinking A would have a negative j vector.
after reading the comments i think i understand, the origin doesn't have influence on the point, and because it is straight down it only has k vector, why is this possible and is this only with 3d equalibruim problems?
@@toondebeule8377 Any weight is always straight down, whether it's 2D or 3D. The component of weight will always be along the z-axis, and in 2D, y-axis.
What's shown is correct. My guess is, you are unsure where the origin is to actually figure out where points A, B, C, and D are. In this problem, look at the center of the board, not the edges, where the 3 axes meet. From there, look to see where point D is. So you have to walk 4 m behind, so negative x-axis, and then 6 m to the right, so positive y-axis, and it's on the x-y plane, so there is no z-component. I really hope you figure it out before you go to an exam and lose marks.
So once you assume F_BA=15 kN, you now have 3 equations with 3 unknowns. Then you can solve them any way you like. For example, you can isolate for 1 variable in the first equation, plug that into the 2nd equation, then isolate for the another variable and plug that into the 3rd equation.

So each point is with respect to the origin. In other words, we are looking for the distance to each point from the origin. Please see this video first: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
You can use the equilibrium equation for the z-components. It has just one variable and it's easily solvable for Fab. Pause the video at 2:16 and look at the very bottom equation. 👍 Let me know if you still need help.
You do not need to add the 2m since we are only looking for the stretch. So you can set the original stretch to 0, and then see how much more it stretched after the weight was hung. If the question asked us to find the total length of the spring after the mass was hung, you would add the stretch to the 2 meters. Otherwise, for this question, it was just extra information that wasn't needed. It's the same as not caring about the length of the rope that's holding onto the crate.
In the third example way it involved springs, don’t we add 2 m to 0.218 and 0.327 since both the springs at OA and OB starts with an unstretched distance of 2 m?
So the question is asking for the stretch, in other words, if our original length was x, how much more did it stretch from that point. The 2 m given is unnecessary info, probably to confuse students, or for another part that shares the same question.
If the question asked us to find the total length of the spring after the mass was hung, you would add the stretch to the 2 meters. Otherwise, for this question, it was just extra information that wasn't needed. It's the same as not caring about the length of the rope that's holding onto the crate. 👍
@@karellhyajervoso7979 For 99% of the problems, I use substitution. If it's more than 3 equations, I use a matrix. You can also use wolfram alpha to get a quick answer.
So it's just a normal equation, you're most likely overthinking it. Let me re-write it with "x" as a variable. -196.2+0.894x=0 0.894x=196.2 x=(196.2/0.894) x=219.5 I hope that helps!
@@sevgipnar5261 Point A is the origin since that's where everything starts from. The weight technically starts at point A. It just pulls straight down, so there are no other components.
@@sevgipnar5261 Okay, I see what's happening. You are mixing up forces expressed in cartesian form vs position vectors. The weight, which is 196.2 N, can be expressed in cartesian form as just -196.2K. When we need to express forces in the cables, we need to write position vectors from A to D, A to C, and A to B. We do NOT need any position vectors for the weight, because it just has a z-component. I am not sure how to explain this better, but one way to think about it is to realize that the cable holding the pot is straight up, it's not going to the left or right or anywhere else. It's just straight upwards, it does NOT have any other components. Again, you are mixing up expressing forces in cartesian form with position vectors. Please kindly watch this video first: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
Hi in 1st question , wouldn't the position of W will slso be along y axis because its 4m left along Y and then in Z axis but you have only put the Z coordinate in position vector
Weight is not a position vector or a force along a line. It is simply weight expressed in cartesian form. It has just one component, that's a z-component (it's straight down). The other forces are all forces along ropes and have multiple components.
@@QuestionSolutions Thank you and one more thing, that means in such problems, I should take only the rope forces in three components, while writing the coordinates of the weight , only the vertically downward component are active, like along -Y( in 2D ) and along -Z( in 3D) , most of the time?
So first, I really need you to watch this video: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html It explains forces along lines/ ropes. When you need to express a force in cartesian form that's along a line, you need to follow the steps outlined. Weight is always straight down. It will have just a z-component. In 2D, the weight is along the y-axis. @@aashu_tosh
FAB is a very simple solve, it's just one variable with a single equation. The other 2 can be solved the same way, plug FAB into the other equation and solve. Use substitution or elimination. Isolate for one variable, plug that into the 2nd equation.
Please see this video first, where I cover how to find the points: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html If you still have trouble, let me know and I will try to help clear it up for you.
Please show your steps when solving for 2 unknown variables. Explain how you got Fca and Fda at 4:14. Show your steps if using elimination or substitution.
I am sorry, but that's something that won't happen on these videos. Solving for 2/3 unknowns is covered in high school mathematics and should be fundamental at his stage. If you are having trouble or you need a refresh, I highly encourage you to look up the methods needed to successfully do them. There are so many different videos on this subject on RUclips :) It's like explaining and going through the steps of the Pythagorean theorem every time it's used. It's time consuming, extra work, and adds extra minutes to a video where that's not the main topic. I also believe many students already know how to do this, so to show these steps for every single problem in every single video is tedious and not efficient. The goal of these videos isn't to show how to solve equations, but rather, how to get those equations to begin with and how to apply the new material learned to solve a problem.
So you have 3 equations with 3 unknowns. You can use any method you learned in high school to solve them, like using elimination, substitution, etc. You can even graph them to see where they intersect. Also, you can double check your answers using wolfram alpha. :)
Thanks! In 2-D, we have a vertical y-axis, and a horizontal x-axis. In 3-D, generally the vertical axis is the z-axis and the x-axis comes towards you, while the y-axis is horizontal. You can draw it however you like, it's up to you as long as you can follow through your own coordinates, you will get the same answers.
So really, you are assuming a different direction for the force. That's fine, make sure to carry out the proper signs (positive/negative) until the very end, and if you get a negative answer, you know it's opposite to your assumption. 👍
Hi, please from the first question, can you explain how you got FAC and FAD? If you could show a solution as to how you got it, I’d really appreciate. I’m having a hard time understanding it. Thank you
From the third equation, you can directly solve for FAB. Once you find FAB, plug it into the FY equation (2nd equation). Now you have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. You can solve them using the substitution method, or any method you're comfortable using. Here are some examples solved that way: ruclips.net/user/shortsHe7lrJEB04U?feature=share ruclips.net/user/shorts86uENomd53U?feature=share ruclips.net/user/shorts4euH1289_Kg?feature=share ruclips.net/user/shortsrAlhrq5hWFc?feature=share Let me know if you need further clarifications. Thanks!
@@QuestionSolutions i am still confused. I just watched the videos you just recommended and i still don’t get it. I’m having a really hard time substituting.
I am not too sure how to help since it's hard to show these types of things over comments. Do you have a TA or a professor you can speak with during office hours to get help with algebra? Maybe this will help too? www.cuemath.com/algebra/substitution-method/ I'll try to do a simple example here. Let's say you have these two equations and you want to solve for x and y. 2x + y = 3 5x + 2y = 4 A way to solve it is to isolate for a variable in one of the equations. So let's isolate for "y" in the first equation. So all we did was subtract 2x from both sides and we get this: y = 3 - 2x Now we take this "y" value and plug it into the second equation. 5x + 2(3 - 2x) = 4 When we do that, notice we get an equation with just one variable. Here, that variable is "x". We can directly solve for "x" now. 5x + 6 - 4x = 4 x + 6 = 4 x = -2 Now that we figured out the "x" value, we can plug that value back into our first equation. 2x + y = 3 2(-2) + y = 3 Now we can solve for "y". y = 7 So our answers are x = -2 and y = 7. The process to solve using substitution is the same for all problems. They might seem more complicated, but the core of it is just isolating for one variable and plugging it into the other equation. @@Ijee12
The same exact way that was done in the previous 2 questions. Point O is at (0i+0j+0k) and point C is at (6i+4j+12k). Then you subtract O from C as shown at 5:29. Then find the magnitude, divide each term of r_OC by the magnitude and then multiply it by the force. Please kindly see this video if you need more background: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html I explain it step by step. Thanks! :)
I use substitution, but you can use any method you're comfortable with; elimination, a matrix, etc. You can even graph the equations to see where they intersect. If you're pressed for time, use wolfram alpha or symbolab.
So you can directly solve for F_AB from the 3rd equation at 2:16. After that, plug that value into the 2nd equation and isolate it for F_AC or F_AD. Then plug the isolated value into the first equation and solve. So easiest would be to use the substitution method. Imagine you have 2 equations like this: 2x+3y=5, 3x-6y=6. You can solve these two easily right? It's the same process.
I am not familiar with position vectors being called lambda vectors. Please see this video: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html In it, I explain what a position vector is, so if it matches with what your professor or book says is a lambda vector, then yes, if not, then no. 👍
Once you find FAB from the 3d equation, you can plug that value back into the other equations and solve. It's 2 equations with 2 unknowns, so use any technique you're comfortable with like elimination or substitution. Isolate for one variable and plug it back into the 2nd equation and solve. 👍
When you solve the three equations, you see that FAC won't carry a force. So you can interpret that as a cable that's there just for appearance, in other words, the two other cables carry all of the weight.
@@bigchungus208 Please watch: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html at time 1:10 I go over how to find points of interest. It's the exact same method used everywhere.
It depends on what you have to do. If it's a force along a line, it's a bit more tedious, but generally, you need a position vector, a unit vector, then using the unit vector, you need to express the force in cartesian form. I cover this in a different video before this, please check the description.
This is very vague, could you kindly send an example problem to contact @ questionsolutions.com. I can check it out and see if I cover any topics on that. 👍
Actually, this is the usual method used in most North American curriculums to show 3D coordinate systems. If you're more familiar with another type, then use that, you'll arrive at the same answer.
The weight is hanging straight down. The vector for weight is straight down, it's not slanted in any other direction. Which means, it has just a z-component.
You wrote the same comment twice. Just out of curiosity, what do you think are the "right" answers to points, B, C, and D? It's important you get the fundamentals right before moving on, and one of them is figuring out where the points are. What's shown is correct but my guess is, you don't know where the origin is for this problem. In this problem, the origin is not at the corner of the board, but at the center. You have to pay careful attention to where the points are, with respect to the center where the axes meet. If you can't figure it out, or you think it's too fast, you need to watch this video (ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html) where I show you how to get the points. It's not too fast, I just expect you to know the fundamentals before coming to this video. If you come to a diving class, you need to know how to swim first. 😅Best wishes with your studies!

The force magnitude is represented by variables F_AB, F_AC, etc. We find those later on in the question.
This video was equilibriawesome! 👍
Are you always this punny in real life too? 😅
@@QuestionSolutions Not usually, but sometimes.
In the third example way it involved springs, don’t we add 2 m to 0.218 and 0.327 since both the springs at OA and OB starts with an unstretched distance of 2 m?
So the question is asking for the stretch, in other words, if our original length was x, how much more did it stretch from that point. The 2 m given is unnecessary info, probably to confuse students, or for another part that shares the same question.
@@QuestionSolutions so, we can pretty much think of s as the change of displacement.
for 3rd example, the spring we don't need to consider its length? for example r(OA) = -2j , r(OB)= -2i
If the question asked us to find the total length of the spring after the mass was hung, you would add the stretch to the 2 meters. Otherwise, for this question, it was just extra information that wasn't needed. It's the same as not caring about the length of the rope that's holding onto the crate. 👍
@@QuestionSolutions ohh that makes sense thank you very much !
@@yeohthianshenupm7885 You're very welcome!
After finding Fab (@2:17), how did you find Fac and Fad when they were both two unknowns?
You have 2 equations with 2 unknowns, use any method you learned to solve them, substitution, elimination, graph them, etc.
What method did you use?
@@karellhyajervoso7979 For 99% of the problems, I use substitution. If it's more than 3 equations, I use a matrix. You can also use wolfram alpha to get a quick answer.
2:13 how did you get that answer?
So it's just a normal equation, you're most likely overthinking it. Let me re-write it with "x" as a variable.
-196.2+0.894x=0
0.894x=196.2
x=(196.2/0.894)
x=219.5
I hope that helps!
In 1:17 why there is only z component ? Isn't there also has j component(+4j)
No, the weight is always straight down along the z-axis, so almost always, it will just have a z-component. Also, how did you get the +4j component?
@@QuestionSolutions because its starts from point A
@@sevgipnar5261 Point A is the origin since that's where everything starts from. The weight technically starts at point A. It just pulls straight down, so there are no other components.
@@QuestionSolutions how can point A origin ?didn’t we write A(0i -4j +0k )
@@sevgipnar5261 Okay, I see what's happening. You are mixing up forces expressed in cartesian form vs position vectors. The weight, which is 196.2 N, can be expressed in cartesian form as just -196.2K. When we need to express forces in the cables, we need to write position vectors from A to D, A to C, and A to B. We do NOT need any position vectors for the weight, because it just has a z-component. I am not sure how to explain this better, but one way to think about it is to realize that the cable holding the pot is straight up, it's not going to the left or right or anywhere else. It's just straight upwards, it does NOT have any other components. Again, you are mixing up expressing forces in cartesian form with position vectors. Please kindly watch this video first: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
Hi in 1st question , wouldn't the position of W will slso be along y axis because its 4m left along Y and then in Z axis but you have only put the Z coordinate in position vector
Weight is not a position vector or a force along a line. It is simply weight expressed in cartesian form. It has just one component, that's a z-component (it's straight down). The other forces are all forces along ropes and have multiple components.
@@QuestionSolutions Thank you and one more thing, that means in such problems, I should take only the rope forces in three components, while writing the coordinates of the weight , only the vertically downward component are active, like along -Y( in 2D ) and along -Z( in 3D) , most of the time?
So first, I really need you to watch this video: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
It explains forces along lines/ ropes. When you need to express a force in cartesian form that's along a line, you need to follow the steps outlined. Weight is always straight down. It will have just a z-component. In 2D, the weight is along the y-axis.
@@aashu_tosh
how did you solve Force ab, ac, ad at 2:21 ?
FAB is a very simple solve, it's just one variable with a single equation. The other 2 can be solved the same way, plug FAB into the other equation and solve. Use substitution or elimination. Isolate for one variable, plug that into the 2nd equation.
You are 1000x better than my professor
Many thanks! Best wishes with your studies.
hello i have a problem with identifying the location of the points specially in example two
Please see this video first, where I cover how to find the points: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
If you still have trouble, let me know and I will try to help clear it up for you.
Please show your steps when solving for 2 unknown variables. Explain how you got Fca and Fda at 4:14. Show your steps if using elimination or substitution.
I am sorry, but that's something that won't happen on these videos. Solving for 2/3 unknowns is covered in high school mathematics and should be fundamental at his stage. If you are having trouble or you need a refresh, I highly encourage you to look up the methods needed to successfully do them. There are so many different videos on this subject on RUclips :) It's like explaining and going through the steps of the Pythagorean theorem every time it's used. It's time consuming, extra work, and adds extra minutes to a video where that's not the main topic. I also believe many students already know how to do this, so to show these steps for every single problem in every single video is tedious and not efficient. The goal of these videos isn't to show how to solve equations, but rather, how to get those equations to begin with and how to apply the new material learned to solve a problem.
Hi sorry, but how did you get the FoA, FoB and FoC at 5:59?
So you have 3 equations with 3 unknowns. You can use any method you learned in high school to solve them, like using elimination, substitution, etc. You can even graph them to see where they intersect. Also, you can double check your answers using wolfram alpha. :)
More 3D examples please 🙏
😅
Wonderful explanation but I doesn't understand how to you draw the x,y and z axis. Y axis is horizontal but here it's vertical please tell.
Thanks! In 2-D, we have a vertical y-axis, and a horizontal x-axis. In 3-D, generally the vertical axis is the z-axis and the x-axis comes towards you, while the y-axis is horizontal. You can draw it however you like, it's up to you as long as you can follow through your own coordinates, you will get the same answers.
for the second question if we assumed the position vectors traveled from point A to the plate would we get wrong answers?
So really, you are assuming a different direction for the force. That's fine, make sure to carry out the proper signs (positive/negative) until the very end, and if you get a negative answer, you know it's opposite to your assumption. 👍
How do we know what’s the direction of the force
Hi, please from the first question, can you explain how you got FAC and FAD?
If you could show a solution as to how you got it, I’d really appreciate.
I’m having a hard time understanding it.
Thank you
From the third equation, you can directly solve for FAB. Once you find FAB, plug it into the FY equation (2nd equation). Now you have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. You can solve them using the substitution method, or any method you're comfortable using.
Here are some examples solved that way:

@@QuestionSolutions i am still confused.
I just watched the videos you just recommended and i still don’t get it.
I’m having a really hard time substituting.
I am not too sure how to help since it's hard to show these types of things over comments. Do you have a TA or a professor you can speak with during office hours to get help with algebra? Maybe this will help too? www.cuemath.com/algebra/substitution-method/
I'll try to do a simple example here. Let's say you have these two equations and you want to solve for x and y.
2x + y = 3
5x + 2y = 4
A way to solve it is to isolate for a variable in one of the equations. So let's isolate for "y" in the first equation. So all we did was subtract 2x from both sides and we get this:
y = 3 - 2x
Now we take this "y" value and plug it into the second equation.
5x + 2(3 - 2x) = 4
When we do that, notice we get an equation with just one variable. Here, that variable is "x". We can directly solve for "x" now.
5x + 6 - 4x = 4
x + 6 = 4
x = -2
Now that we figured out the "x" value, we can plug that value back into our first equation.
2x + y = 3
2(-2) + y = 3
Now we can solve for "y".
y = 7
So our answers are x = -2 and y = 7.
The process to solve using substitution is the same for all problems. They might seem more complicated, but the core of it is just isolating for one variable and plugging it into the other equation.

In the first example, why isn't there a separate tension for the cable between the pot and A
Because the weight is translated onto the rope. In other words, the force in the rope is the weight of the pot.
Does it not matter from where you take the position vector from?
I am not sure of your question, sorry! Do you think you can give me a timestamp that's referring to a specific spot?
can you please explain to me how you got the components for force oc
The same exact way that was done in the previous 2 questions. Point O is at (0i+0j+0k) and point C is at (6i+4j+12k). Then you subtract O from C as shown at 5:29. Then find the magnitude, divide each term of r_OC by the magnitude and then multiply it by the force. Please kindly see this video if you need more background: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html I explain it step by step. Thanks! :)
Glad you are back. Will you ever cover especial relativity?
I get a lot of so many requests, I am hoping to cover them all. I will try my best but time is always the biggest factor. Will try :)
how did you find Fca , Fda and W @4.48
I use substitution, but you can use any method you're comfortable with; elimination, a matrix, etc. You can even graph the equations to see where they intersect. If you're pressed for time, use wolfram alpha or symbolab.
how did you get Fad and Fac at 2:22?
So you can directly solve for F_AB from the 3rd equation at 2:16. After that, plug that value into the 2nd equation and isolate it for F_AC or F_AD. Then plug the isolated value into the first equation and solve. So easiest would be to use the substitution method. Imagine you have 2 equations like this: 2x+3y=5, 3x-6y=6. You can solve these two easily right? It's the same process.
Are position vectors the same as lambda vector?
I am not familiar with position vectors being called lambda vectors. Please see this video: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
In it, I explain what a position vector is, so if it matches with what your professor or book says is a lambda vector, then yes, if not, then no. 👍
How did sir get force Fac and Fad
Please see: ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html
In problem 1 how did you find Fac and Fad I’m still a little unsure of how you got 54.8
Once you find FAB from the 3d equation, you can plug that value back into the other equations and solve. It's 2 equations with 2 unknowns, so use any technique you're comfortable with like elimination or substitution. Isolate for one variable and plug it back into the 2nd equation and solve. 👍
Why fac is carry no force in sample problem 2
When you solve the three equations, you see that FAC won't carry a force. So you can interpret that as a cable that's there just for appearance, in other words, the two other cables carry all of the weight.
In the first problem in points C why is the 2 positive and in the D the 2 is negative

What are the steps? Like 1. Find location 2. Position vector ... so on..?
It depends on what you have to do. If it's a force along a line, it's a bit more tedious, but generally, you need a position vector, a unit vector, then using the unit vector, you need to express the force in cartesian form. I cover this in a different video before this, please check the description.

I was wonder how u got your answer ?
Guys to get the locations of A,B,C,D at Question 2, assume the center of the plate is the origin.
The origin is always where the x,y,z axes meet.
tbh, the way you made the FBD is so confusing. commonly used coordinates will always label the vertical line as the "y" not "z".
Actually, this is the usual method used in most North American curriculums to show 3D coordinate systems. If you're more familiar with another type, then use that, you'll arrive at the same answer.
Ican understand why w components are in z axe only
The weight is hanging straight down. The vector for weight is straight down, it's not slanted in any other direction. Which means, it has just a z-component.

at 2:51 point B C D is all wrong, really bad video to watch, skipping step to much
You wrote the same comment twice. Just out of curiosity, what do you think are the "right" answers to points, B, C, and D? It's important you get the fundamentals right before moving on, and one of them is figuring out where the points are. What's shown is correct but my guess is, you don't know where the origin is for this problem. In this problem, the origin is not at the corner of the board, but at the center. You have to pay careful attention to where the points are, with respect to the center where the axes meet. If you can't figure it out, or you think it's too fast, you need to watch this video (ruclips.net/video/CCeWy1kmxMs/видео.html) where I show you how to get the points. It's not too fast, I just expect you to know the fundamentals before coming to this video. If you come to a diving class, you need to know how to swim first. 😅Best wishes with your studies!
