Solve Problem 2.73, assuming that point A is located 15° north of west and that the barrel of the gun forms an angle of 25° with the horizontal.
PROBLEM 2.73
A gun is aimed at a point A located 35° east of north. Knowing that the barrel of the gun forms an angle of 40° with the horizontal and that the maximum recoil force is 400 N, determine
(a) The x, y, and z components of that force,
(b) The values of the angles θx, θy, and θz defining the direction of the recoil force. (Assume that the x, y, and z axes are directed, respectively, east, up, and south.)
