Expert Solution
Step 1

We are required to graph the resultant force F.

First, we will find the resultant force by adding the x and y-component of force together, then we will plot it.

Fx=0.81+0.21-1.035+0.06+0.04Fx=1.12-1.035=0.085 NFy=-0.73+0.17+0.50+0.09+0.03Fy=0.06 N

We deduce here that since both the sums are positive, so the resultant force lies in the first quadrant.

And its direction:

θ=tan-10.060.085=35.2°
