Question

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.

Answer 1

26.833 N

Step-by-step 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

`=√(A^2 + B^2 + 2AB * cos \theta)\\\\=\sqrt{144 + 576 + 2* 24* 12* cos90^(\circ)}\\\\=√(144+576+576* 0)\\\\=√(720)`

=26.833 N
