.

It is  59.1 N [N] - 18.8 N [S] - 32.3 N [S].  The net force direction is [N].


I don't know what is FBD.

Comment from student: I just noticed you had N for 18.8 instead of S

My responce : Thank you for noticing and for informing me.

You are RIGHT (!)

It was my TYPO.

I just changed all relevant letters/symbols.

I hope it is correct now.

Thanks again.

I love attentive students, who follow my writing, think and correct me (when necessary).

Come again to the forum soon to learn something new (!)
