Two horizontal forces, P and Q, are acting on a block that is placed on a table. We know that P = (-2.10î + 4.25k N but the magnitude and direction of Q are unknown. The block moves along the table. Assume there is no friction between the object and the table. Here the mass of the block is 5.10 kg.
