TWO forces, one of 12N and another or 24N

act on body in such a way that they make an angle of 90° with each other. Find the resaltant of two forces.


Sagot :

Answer:

26.833 N

Explanation:

The computation of the resaltant of two forces is shown below:

Given that

Force A = 12N

Force B = 24N

Based on the above information  

Resultant R is

[tex]=\sqrt{A^2 + B^2 + 2AB \times cos \theta}\\\\=\sqrt{144 + 576 + 2\times 24\times 12\times cos90^{\circ}}\\\\=\sqrt{144+576+576\times 0}\\\\=\sqrt{720}[/tex]

=26.833 N
