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

What is the magnitude of Betty's force FB→ if Charles pulls in the direction drawn in the picture?
Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. Jack pulls eastward with a force of 94.5 N,94.5 N, Jill pulls with 88.1 N88.1 N in the northeast direction, and Jane pulls to the southeast with 181 N.181 N. (Since the donkey is involved with such uncoordinated people, who can blame it for being stubborn?) Find the magnitude of the net force the people exert on the donkey. What is the direction of the net force? Express this as the angle from the east direction between 0°0° and 90°,90°, with a positive sign for north of east and a negative sign for south of east.

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 right, 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. Assuming the positive direction to the right, express the net pull on the knot in terms of the unit vector. How big is the net pull on the knot? In what direction?
In the figure, a slab of mass m1 = 40 kg rests on a frictionless floor, and a block of mass m2 = 10 kg rests on top of the slab. Between block and slab, the coefficient of static friction is 0.60, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40. A horizontal force F→ of magnitude 104 N begins to pull directly on the block, as shown. In unit-vector notation, what are the resulting accelerations of (a) the block and (b) the slab?
