12 V is the f.e.m. 
of the battery. The potential difference that is applied to the motor is actually the fem minus the voltage drop on the internal resistance r:
this is equal to the voltage drop on the resistance of the motor R:
so we can write:
and using
and 
we can find the current I:
this is equal to the voltage drop on the resistance of the motor R:
so we can write:
and using
Static equilibrium means that all forces are equal, so make this easiest you want to break F1 into it's horizontal and vertical components. As there are no other forces acting in the horizontal, we know the horizontal component of F1 is 40N. This allows the vertical component to be found using pythagorus theorem. After finding the vertical and horizontal components, you just have to add the vertical components to find the difference between the up and down.
