Rope A lies in the +x direction and rope B is 120o counterclockwise from rope A (they are tied together at the origin). Rope C is also attached to rope A and B at the origin. If rope A has 3.0 units of force, and rope B is pulling with 5.0 units of force, how many units of force, and in what direction must rope C pull to balance and create a static equilibrium with the other two ropes?
