‘The effect of a aystem of forves on a body is usually expressed in term of a resultant, The value of this resultant determines the motion of th ieee wee Maina te signs of its components; this is early explained in the table which follows e Up to lett between this problem and the prveding ome Be dctined hy ite ope instead ofits angle.
