Question 1171584: PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!! PHYSICS PROBLEM HERE
Charlie pushes on a wagon with a force of 12 N to the north and Eli pushes on the wagon with
a force of 7.5 N east. What is the resultant force experienced by the wagon? Answer by ikleyn(52776) (Show Source):
The resultant force is the hypotenuse of the right triangle with the legs 7.5 units (horizontally) and 12 units (vertically).
Use the Pythagorean formula to find its value.
Find the angle "a" of the force vector to horizontal direction from this equation
tan(a) = = 3.428,
a = arctan(3.428).
Use your calculator.
Solved.
