Answer: R = 346.4N and angle 30° to the horizontal negative axis
Explanation:
To find the resultant force, we need to sum up the forces on the vertical and horizontal axis.
For the horizontal axis;
Rx = -b + acos60
Rx = -400N +200cos60
Rx = -400N +100N
Rx = -300N
For the vertical axis;
Ry = asin60 = 200sin60
Ry = 173.2N
The resultant force R can be given as;
R = √(Rx^2 +Ry^2)
R = √((-300)^2 + 173.2^2)
R = 346.4N
Angle z can be written as
Tanz = Ry/Rx
z = taninverse (Ry/Rx)
z = taninverse (173.2/300)
z = 30°
