Question

two forces of magnitude A and B are acting at right angle to each other. the magnitude of thier resultant is​

Answer 1

Answer:

1000 N

Explanation:

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

The resultant of two forces( say a and b )is given by the formula, R=√(a^2 +b^2 +2ab cos β)

Where β is the angle between the two forces

Here, β=90°

And a=b,since the two forces are equal

So, R=√(a^2 + a^2 +2a x a x cos 90)

Cos 90=0.

So R=√(2a^2)=√2 a

BTP,

1414=√2 a

a=1414/1.414[√2=1.414]

a=1000 N. (Ans)

So, magnitude of each force =1000N
