Four forces act a point on a plane. One force of 100 dynes act on the x-axis to the right; a second force of 80 dynes acts at an angle of 30o above the x-axis to the right.; a third force of 60 dynes acts toward the left 60o above the x-axis and fourth force of 70 dynes acts vertically downward. Find the resultant of the forces? Use the component method.

FIND THE RESULTANT VECTOR AND ITS ANGLE USING THE COMPONENT METHOD

  1. Four forces act a point on a plane. One force of 100 dynes act on the x-axis to the right; a second force of 80 dynes acts at an angle of 30o above the x-axis to the right.; a third force of 60 dynes acts toward the left 60o above the x-axis and fourth force of 70 dynes acts vertically downward. Find the resultant of the forces? Use the component method.
