Program: Statics By: Ben Axelrod I can’t think of another application of this program other than a Statics class. What it does is: you give it a direction vector (this does not have to be a unit vector) and the force of this vector. Then the program makes a unit vector out of the direction vector then multiplies it by the force. It isn’t hard math but it takes a while to do these basic calculations. NOTE: if you enter the force as 1 you can get the unit vector. Here is the formula used: AI + BJ + CK (F) ----------------------- sqroot(A^2 + B^2 + C^2)
