During a three-way tug-of-war competition, each of the three ropes is tied to a center knot. One man pulls his rope South with a force of 450 N. Another man pulls his rope at 20° East of North with a force of 386 N. If the knot is stationary, meaning the overall force is zero, in which direction does the third man pull his rope? O 33.5° North of West O 33.5° South of West O 33.5° North of East O 33.5° West of North
