WORKSHEETI DIRECTICNS: ALL WORK MUST BE ILANDWRIIIEN_ 1. Draw the free body diagram for each problem. 2. Use the GUESS method to show your work. 1. Throe forces are being exerted on a common object. Two of the forces are acting downward with values of \( 20 \mathrm{~N} \) and \( 45 \mathrm{~N} \) respectively. The third force \( (15 \mathrm{~N}) \) is being cxerted upward on the same objecL. What should the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on the object be? Include a free body diagram. 2. \( A \) force of \( 10.0 \mathrm{~N} \) acts on point \( \mathrm{P} \) in a due esst direction. Another force of \( 20.0 \mathrm{~N} \) acts on the same point in a due wost direction. What is the net force on \( \mathrm{P} \) ? lnclude a free body diagram.

Find the forces $\mathbf{F}_{1}$ and $\mathbf{F}_{2}$ that produce equilibrium in each force diagram. A rope is attached to two buildings and supports a $50 \overline{0}$ -lb sign (Fig. 7.21). Find the tensions in the two ropes $\mathbf{T}_{1}$ and $\mathbf{T}_{2}$. (Hint: Draw the force diagram of the forces acting at the point labeled $A$.
Concurrent and Parallel Forces
Concurrent Forces in Equilibrium
(a) Find the magnitudes of the forces $\mathbf{F}_{1}$ and $\mathbf{F}_{2}$ that add to give the total force $\mathbf{F}_{\text { tot }}$ shown in Figure $4.35 .$ This may be done either graphically or by using trigonometry. (b) Show graphically that the same total force is obtained independent of the order of addition of $\mathbf{F}_{1}$ and $\mathbf{F}_{2} .(\mathrm{c})$ Find the direction and magnitude of some other pair of vectors that add to give $\mathbf{F}_{\text { tot. Draw these to scale on the same drawing }}$ used in part (b) or a similar picture.
Resultant Force Two forces of magnitude 30 newtons (N) and $70 \mathrm{~N}$ act on an object at angles of $45^{\circ}$ and $120^{\circ}$ with the positive $x$ -axis, as shown in the figure. Find the direction and magnitude of the resultant force; that is, find $\mathbf{F}_{1}+\mathbf{F}_{2}$.
