Question

The resultant of two forces 300
N and 400 N acting at an angle
of 90° with each other is

Answer 1

Answer:

Draw coordinate axes on the free-body diagram. Decompose the forces acting on the object into x and y components. Calculate the x and y components of the resultant force by adding the x and y components of all forces. Finally, find the magnitude and direction of the resultant force by using its x and y components.
