Question
Consider a particle subject to the forces shown in Figure 1, where the forces have magnitudes Fi = 18N, F2 = 5N, F3 = 11N, 40°, and az = 0° for F1, F2, and the angles with respect to the horizontal are a1 and F3 respectively. 65°, a2 = (a) Find the resultant force and calculate its magnitude and direction (relative to the positive x-axis). (b) This resultant force now acts on an object (modelled as a particle) of mass 8 kg. Find the acceleration and calculate its magnitude. F1 F2 K F3 Figure 1: Figure for exercise 4.
