Answer:

1} 10N along x axis:

A = 10 N

0 = 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

2} 6 N along y axis:

If a force is acting completely along Y axis than the force acting along X axis is equal to 0. But if the force acts, making an angle with the Y axis than you can resolve the force using TRIGONMETRY to find its X component.

r = 10 + 6

r = 16

resultant = 16N
