Answer:
F = 0.78[N]
Explanation:
The given values correspond to forces, we must remember or take into account that the forces are vector quantities, that is, they have magnitude and direction. Since we have two X-Y coordinate axes (two-dimensional), we are going to decompose each of the forces into the X & y components.
<u>For F₁</u>
<u /><u />
<u>For F₂</u>
<u>For F₃</u>
<u /><u />
Now we can sum each one of the forces in the given axes:
Now using the Pythagorean theorem we can find the total force.
