UNIT - I

2. (a) Distinguish clearly between resolution of forces and composition of forces.
   (b) A horizontal line PQRS is 12 m long, where PQ = QR = RS = 4 m. Forces of 1000 N, 1500 N, 1000 N and 500 N act at P, Q, R and S respectively with downward direction. The lines of action of these forces make angles of 90°, 60°, 45°and 30°respectively with PS. Find the magnitude, direction and position of resultant force.
