Answer:
A) object moves 20 N [West] or -20 N [East]
B) object moves 6 N [South] or -6 N [North]
C) object moves 90 N [West] or -90 N [East]
D) object does not move and is at rest*
*Rest means 0
Why:
A)both forces from north and south that are pushing against the object neutralize each other. Assume that north is positive and south is negative: 20 [N] + (-20) [S] = 0
On West and east, you can see that west has a greater force. Assume that west is negative and east is positive: 50 [E] + (-70) [W] = -20 [E]
Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is
<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N
which is positive, so it's directed east.
To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that
18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N
<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N
So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.
M=2.45 because you multiply out the equation on the right and divide by 10
