i) Fig. 4.1 shows a top view of a tourist vehicle in a game park and two elephants pushing against the vehicle. The two forces indicated are at right angles to each other. vehicle 4.0 kN 6.0 kN elephant elephant Fig. 4.1 In the space below, draw a scale vector diagram to determine the magnitude of the resultant force. Label the two forces applied and the resultant, and clearly state the scale you use.

Step 1
You need to draw a vector diagram to find the resultant force exerted by two elephants on a vehicle. Assume the forces are represented by vectors \( \vec{F}_1 \) and \( \vec{F}_2 \). Show more…

Construct a vector addition diagram and determine the resultant force. The diagram should be drawn to scale, and the scale should be indicated. The magnitude and direction of each vector should be clearly labeled. Label the magnitude and direction of the resultant on the diagram. Force A: 7.5N [N59°W] Force B: 10.6N [N57°E] Force C: 10.9N [S19°W]
