Question

Consider a weather balloon floating in the air. There are three forces acting on this balloon: the force of gravity is FG, the force from lift towards balloon is FL, and the force from the wind is labeled Fw. The orientation of these forces along with a coordinate system is given below:
Assume that || FG || = 20 N, || FL ||= 25 N, and || Fw ll = 15 N.

Required:
Find the magnitude of the resultant force acting on the weather balloon and round your answer to two decimal places.
