Question

Mr. One is pushing a cart with a force of F1 = 15.00 N due north. Mr. Two is pushing the same cart with a force of F2 = 25.00 N due northeast. Mr. Three is pushing the cart a force F3 so that the cart is in equilibrium. Find force F3 so that .

First, we calculate the vector sum  by component method.

The x-component of  is  and the y-component is  .

The x-component of  is  and the y-component is  .

Adding the components, we can express the resultant vector in unit vector component form:

 =   +  

Since we want to find , it follows that . Thus,

 =   +   

The magnitude of  is F3 =  N.

Supply all missing information with the correct numerical values. Do not include the units. Round off all answers to two decimal places. Do
not forget the negative sign (-) if needed.
Mr. One is pushing a cart with a force of F1 = 15.00 N due north. Mr. Two is pushing the same cart with a force of F2 = 25.00 N due northeast. Mr. Three
is pushing the cart a force F3 so that the cart is in equilibrium. Find force F3 so that Fi + F, + F3= 0.
First, we calculate the vector sum
+ F2 by component method.
The x-component of F, is
and the y-component is
The x-component of F, is
and the y-component is
Adding the components, we can express the resultant vector in unit vector component form:
F +F2=
Since we want to find F, + F2+
3 =0, it follows that F3 = - (F, + F).
Thus,
F3-
The magnitude of F3 is F3 =
N.
