The helicopter view in Fig. P3.15 shows two people pulling on a stubborn mule. The person on the right pulls with a force F1 of magnitude 120 X and direction of 1 = 60.0. The person on the left pulls with a force F2 of magnitude 80.0 N and direction of 2 = 75.0. Find (a) the single force that is equivalent to the two forces shown and (b) the force that a third person would have to exert on the mule to make the resultant force equal to zero. The forces are measured in units of newtons (symbolized N). Figure P3.15
