Two student pull horizontally on ropes attached to a mass. The two forces F1 and F2 that they apply to the mass are such that the net force Fnet has a magnitude equal to that of F1 and makes an angle of 900 with F1 , Let F1 = 1000 N. Find the magnitude of F2 and its direction (relative to F1 ).

Two ropes are attached to a tree, and forces of F1 = 2.0Nˆi + 4.0N ˆj and F2 = 3.0Nˆi + 6.0N ˆj are applied. The forces are coplanar (in the same plane). (a) What is the resultant (net force) of these two force vectors?(b) Find the magnitude and direction of this net force.

In a physics laboratory class, three massless ropes are tied together at a point. A pulling force is applied along each rope: $F_{1}=150 . \mathrm{N}$ at $60.0^{\circ}$ $F_{2}=200 . \mathrm{N}$ at $100 .^{\circ}, F_{3}=100 . \mathrm{N}$ at $190 .^{\circ} .$ What is the magnitude of a fourth force and the angle at which it acts to keep the point at the center of the system stationary? (All angles are measured from the positive $x$ -axis.)
Two persons pull horizontally on ropes attached to a post, the angle between the ropes being $60^{\circ} .$ Person $\mathrm{A}$ pulls with a force of 150 lb, while person $B$ pulls with a force of $110 \mathrm{lb}$ (a) The resultant force is the vector sum of the two forces. Draw a figure to scale that graphically represents the three forces. (b) Using trigonometry, determine formulas for the vector components of the two forces in a conveniently chosen coordinate system. Perform the algebraic addition, and find the angle the resultant force makes with A.
