Problem 2 A plane is defined by three points, as shown in the figure. A projectile is moving towards the plane with a velocity vector v = (-20 i + 5 j – 5 k) m/s. a.) Determine a unit vector that is perpendicular (normal) to the plane and pointed inwards (i.e., towards the origin). The x-component is:

Problem 3 Point A is connected to cables AB, AC, AD, and AE. The tension in cable AE is equal to P and the cable is parallel to the z-axis, as shown. The strength of cable AD is 1000 lb and you are using a factor of safety of 2. Assume that the remaining cables will not fail. The coordinates of points A, B, C, and D are below: Point A: (0, 8, 0) ft Point B: (-6, 0, 0) ft Point C: (6, 0, 0) ft Point D: (0, 17, 12) ft a.) Determine a unit vector pointing in the direction AB. The x-component is:
