Suppose the forces F1 and F2 act on an object. The direction of the force F1 coincides with the direction of the negative x-axis and the magnitude of F1 is 50 Newtons. The direction of the force F2 coincides with the direction of the vector 4 · i - 3 · j and the magnitude of F2 is 100 Newtons. Find the magnitude of the resultant force.

A force F1 of magnitude 7.00 units acts on an object at the origin in a direction ? = 28.0° above the positive x-axis. A second force F2 of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the object in the direction of the positive y-axis. Find graphically the magnitude and direction of the resultant force F1 + F2

A force F1 of magnitude 5.40 units acts on an object at the origin in a direction θ = 44.0° above the positive x-axis. (See the figure below.) A second force F2 of magnitude 5.00 units acts on the object in the direction of the positive y-axis. Find graphically the magnitude and direction of the resultant force F1 + F2. What is the magnitude?

Determine the magnitude of the resultant force $\mathbf{F}_{R}=\mathbf{F}_{1}+\mathbf{F}_{2}$ and its direction, measured counterclockwise from the positive $x$ axis.
