Question

Three forces act simultaneously on point j. one force is 10 newton's north

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 24.2 N.

Explanation:

Y- component = 10 N + 15 cos (30) = 23 N (North)

X - component = 15 N - 15 sin (30) = 7.5 N (west)

As, East, west and North are opposite direction so minus,

Magnitude = √ 23² + 7.5²

                  = 24.2 N.
