Question

The 7.4 N weight is in equilibrium under

Answer 1

a) Magnitude of force is 5.37N

b) Angle of force is - 37.88°

What is force?

In physics, we define a force is an influence that can change the motion of object. A force can cause an object with mass to change to accelerate.

Given force from above is 5.9N

∑Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ+F₃ₓ = 0

F₂ cos 44° + Fₓ = 0

Fₓ = - 5.9 cos44°

= - 4.24  N

Given force that acts downward as 7.4N

∑Fy= Fy1+ Fy2 +Fy3 =0

Fy+ 5.9 sin 44° - 7.4= 0

F =  3.30 N

F =√Fₓ² +Fy²

=  5.37 N

b)  angle of force= tan⁻¹ (3.30/-4.24)

= - 37.88°
