To find:The angle between the forces given the magnitude of their resultant.
Answer to Problem 76E
Theangle between the forces is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The magnitude of force 1 is 3000 pounds and it is in the positive x-axis direction, and that of force 2 is 1000 pouds and it is making an angle
Calculations:
Given forces are
So the resultant force will be
Using the given magnitude of resultant force,
Conclusion:
Therefore, the angle between the forces is
