A 1000-kg barge is being towed by means of two horizontal cables. One cable is pulling with a force of 80.0 N in a direction 30.
0° west of north. In what direction should the second cable pull so that the barge will accelerate northward, if the force exerted by the cable is 120 N?
Force can be exerted into an object with out it moving, but if you were to move the object due to force it would be considered work. (yes, you can exert force without having the object moving)
