Question

A body of mass 5 kg is acted upon by two perpendicular forces of magnitude
8 N and 6 N. Find the magnitude and direction of the acceleration
​

Answer 1

Answer:

8N and 6N forces are acted perpendicularly on a body of mass 5kg .

We know,

We two foce F1 and F2 are perpendicular then ,

Net Force = √(F1² + F2²)

Use this concept here,

Here, F1 = 8 N

F2 = 6N

Fnet = √(8² + 6²) N

= √(64 + 36) N

= 10 N

Let net Force makes ∅ with 6N ,

Then, tan∅ = F1/F2

Tan∅ = 8/6 = 4/3

∅ = tan-¹(4/3)
