Question

Two forces, F1 and F2, act at a point. The magnitude of F1 is 9.00 N, and its direction is an angle of 55.0° above the negative direction of the x-axis in the second quadrant. The magnitude of F2 is 5.00 N, and its direction is an angle of 54.1° below the negative direction of the x-axis in the third quadrant. Q1. What is the x-component of the resultant force? Q2. What is the magnitude of the resultant force?
