Two tugboats are pulling a ship. Each tugboat exerts a force of 6 N. The pull rope of one tugboat is aligned along the horizontal axis, and the angle between the two pull ropes is 60 in the counterclockwise direction. What is the resultant force on the ship? 1. Draw the vector diagram for the given scenario. 2. Label all the vectors and angle/s, and if given, its corresponding magnitude and unit of measurement. 23. What is the total component force along the X-axis? Write on the space below your solution to question no. 23.
