Answer:
Fn= 174.9 N : Magnitude of the net force the people exert on the donkey.
Step-by-step explanation:
We find the components of the forces in x-y-z
Force of Jack in z =F₁z=90.5 N in direction (+z)
Force of Jill in x = F₂x= -82.3*cos45°= - 58.19 N (-x)
Force of Jill in y =F₂y=-82.3*sin45°= + 58.19 N (+y)
Force of Jane in x =F₃x=125*cos45°= + 88.4 N (+x)
Force of Jane in y =F₃y=125*sin45°= + 88.4 N (+y)
Calculating of the components of the net force the people exert on the donkey.
Fnx= F₂x+F₃x=( - 58.19+ 88.4 )N=30.2N (+x)
Fny= F₂y+F₃y=( 58.19+88.4 ) = 146.59 N (+y)
Fnz =F₁z=90.5 N (+z)
Calculating of the magnitude of the net force the people exert on the donkey.
