Find the resultant of the following forces: 3.0N east, 4.0N west, and 5.0N in a direction north 60° west.

5.5 N at 50.8° north of west.

Explanation:

To find the resultant of these forces, we have to resolve each force along the x- and y-direction, then find the components of the resultant force, and then calculate the resultant force.

The three forces are:

(east)

(west)

(at 60° north of west)

Taking east as positive x-direction and north as positive y-direction, the components of the forces along the 2 directions are:

Threfore, the components of the resultant force are:

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force is

And the direction is:

And since the x-component is negative, it means that this angle is measured as north of west.

where is the photo and the answer choices?

the answer is f1 and d2 because if you put equal force on those two points the beam would balance trust me on this
