Four strings are attached to a wooden block. One string is pulled with 5.0N force towards y. The second string is pulled with 10N towards 30 degrees above X. The third string is pulled with 5N towards Y. The fourth string is pulled such that the net force experienced by the wooden block is zero. determine the magnitude of the force on the fourth string.

In a tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one side or the other. Two students pull with force 196 N each to the light, four students pull with force 98 N each to the left, five students pull with force 62 N each to the left, three students pull with force 150 N each to the right, and one student pulls with force 250 N to the left.
