Question

The resultant of two equal forces acting at right angles to each other is 1414 N.What is the magnitude of each force ?

Answer 1

Answer:

hey friend i will help you

Explanation:

see to find resultant (R)  there is one formula

(R) = (F1)^2 + (F2)^2 + 2*F1*F2*COS THETA ( THIS BOLD WORDS ARE UNDER UNDEROOT)

HERE F1 AND F2 ARE THE TWO EQUAL FORCES

THEY ARE ACTING AT RIGHT ANGLES SO THETA WILL BE 90

R = 1414

SO LET'S APPLY FORMULA

(1414)^2 = 2F1^2 + 2*F1*F2*0(AS COS 90 = 0)

19,93,744 = 2F1^2 + 0

F1^2 = 996872

SO F1 WILL BE SQUAREROOT OF 996872 WHICH IS 998.4

SO BOTH THE FORCES WILL BE 998.4N EACH.

I HOPE IT HELPS YOU BUDDY.
