Question

Two force act at angle of 120 the bigeer force is 50N and the resultant is perpendicular to smaller one. Find the smaller force

Answer 1

Hey, there!

Here's the answer you are looking for.

If you arrange the force vectors, and add them using the Triangle law of vector addition, then you will get ;

cos60 = x/50 (where x is the smaller force)

x = 25N.

Hope that helps!

Thanks.
