Question

The magnitudes and directions of two forces acting at a point P are given. Approximate the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector. (Round your answers to one decimal place.)

5.0 lb,    110°

3.0 lb,    215°

Magnitude=

direction=

Answer 1

The magnitudes and directions of two forces acting at a point P are given. Approximate the magnitude and direction of the resultant vector. (Round your answers to one decimal place.)

5.0 lb,    110°

3.0 lb,    215°

Magnitude= Sqrt ( 5²+3² +2*52*32 Cos 105) 215 -110 = 105
