- Editted somewhat: The way you have that worded is a little confusing, but essentially, he is correct. Do a plot of vectors of force (simple Pythagorean theorem stuff) and you will see that to have th

- I think the problem can be approached using Pythagoreans Theorem and = force vectors.... a|\ c b a^2+b^2=3Dc^2 Shrinking the ac angle (making steeper) causes b (lateral force) to = shrink. To equaliz
