2. Three friends are pulling the rope tied to a box. You pull a rope along 12° east of south with 300 N, second friend pulls the rope to the north of east 190 with 425 N. If the net or resultant force acting on the box is 475 N along west, then find the magnitude and direction of force applied by the third friend.
