The forces result in a right triangle. To obtain the resultant force, one can simply use the Pythagorean theorem. 1250 lbf and 2650 lbf both act as the legs of the triangle. Obtaining the hypotenuse via the theorem would yield the resultant force. This is done below:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2
c^2 = (1250)^2 + (2650)^2
c = 2930.017 lbf

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force is approximately equal to 2930 lbf.

Find the 61st term of the following arithmetic sentence
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The 61st term would be 495

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the 61st term, you need to find the rule for the sequence. You'll notice that the numbers are going up by 8. Since there is no 0th term, the first term would be 8 more than the base.

15 - 8 = 7

Therefore the base is 7. As a result, you can model the sequence as:

An = 8n + 7

In which n is the number in the sequence. Now knowing this, we can plug in 61 and get the answer.

An = 8n + 7

An = 8(61) + 7

An = 488 + 7

An = 495
