Explanation Given: Two tugboats are pulling a barge as shown in the figure. One pulls with a force of 2.0 × 10 4 lb in the direction N 50 ° E , and the other pulls with a force of 3.4 × 10 4 lb in the direction S 75 ° E . Figure ( 1 ) Approach: Let v be a vector with magnitude | v | and direction θ . Then, v = a 1 i + a 2 j . Here, a 1 = | v | cos θ and a 2 = | v | sin θ . Thus the vector v is expressed as v = | v | cos θ i + | v | sin θ j . If several forces acts on an object simultaneously, then the resultant force experienced by the object is the vector sum of these forces. Calculation: Let F 1 be the force of 2.0 × 10 4 lb in the direction N 50 ° E and F 2 be the force of 3.4 × 10 4 lb in the direction S 75 ° E . The standard reference axis is x axis. So, the direction of F 1 from the standard axis is 40 ° and of F 2 is − 15 ° . Then, the complement of F 1 is given as, To determine (b) To find: The magnitude and direction of the resultant force F .
