The boat is pulling three water skiers. Skier A makes an angle of 30° with the boat driving direction, skier B makes an angle of 5°, skier C makes a negative angle of 15°. Suppose the magnitude of a force which impact on every skieracting on it is 900 N. Calculate The magnitude of the combined force and the angle which according to the direction of the boat journey.
