Question
While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces F and F, on the couch. Andrea's force is due north with a magnitude of 140.0 N and Jennifer's force is 20° east of north with a magnitude of 170.0 N.
(a) Find the net force (in N) in component form.
F
net
N
(b) Find the magnitude (in N) and direction (in degrees counterclockwise from the east axis) of the net force.
magnitude 305.571
direction
10.956
✔ N
x
counterclockwise from the east axis
(c) If Andrea and Jennifer's housemates, David and Stephanie, disagree with the move and want to prevent its relocation, with what combined force Fos (in N) should they push so that the couch does not move? (Enter your answer in component form.)
