Aforce vector has a magnitude of 720 n and a direction of 38 degree north of east. determine the magnitude and direction of the components of the force that point along the north-south line and along east-west line.

443.3 N

567.4 N

Explanation:

Consider the triangle ABC

AC = hypotenuse = magnitude of force vector = F = 720 N

AB = adjacent = Component of force along east-west line =

BC = Opposite = Component of force along north-south line =

θ = Angle = 38 deg

In triangle ABC

= 443.3 N

Also, In triangle ABC

= 567.4 N

the part of the wave he is travelling on is the crest

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.
