Two teams pull a rope horizontally in opposite directions during a tug of war. One team exerts a tension force of 1,281 N pointing to the right and the other 1,110 N pointing to the left. Calculate the net force (in N) in the x-direction (parallel to rope) assuming that the weight of the rope is negligible [round your final answer to zero decimal places].

A father pulls his child on a sled by pulling on a rope over his shoulder with a force as much as 75 N directed along the rope that makes an angle of 30 degree with the ground. The icy ground exerts about 15 N frictional force on the sled. The combined weight of the sled and the child is about 180 N. Illustrate the concurrent forces on a Cartesian plane and compute for the resultant force (magnitude and direction) on the sled.

Using the method of components, find the resultant of the following concurrent forces. Note: After solving for the Angle of the Resultant, you must then determine the Direction of the Resultant relative to Horizontal (positive x-axis) in a CCW (counter-clockwise direction). Sometimes the Direction of the Resultant may be the same as the Angle of the Resultant. However, you must always calculate both: the Angle of the Resultant (based on the Resultant triangle sketch) and then the Direction of the Resultant based on Horizontal (positive x-axis) in a CCW direction from horizontal.
