Answer:

R=250 N

α = 38.86⁰

Explanation:

Given that

Force ,F₁ = 150 N (Towards north  )

Force ,F₂ = 200 N ( Towards east )

We know that the angle between north and east direction is 90⁰ .

The resultant force R is given as

R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2cos\theta\\

We know that

cos 90⁰ =  0

That is why

R=\sqrt{150^2+200^2}\\R=250\ N

Therefore the magnitude of the forces will be 250  N.

The angle  from the horizontal of the resultant force = α

tan\alpha=\dfrac{150}{200}\\tan\alpha=0.75\\\alpha=38.86\ degrees

R=250 N

α = 38.86⁰

What are the potential out comes of force
AysviL [449]

Answer:

F in the definition of potential energy is the force exerted by the force field, e.g., gravity, spring force, etc. The potential energy U is equal to the work you must do against that force to move an object from the U=0 reference point to the position r.
