Question

In the accompanying figure, two ropes are attached to a large crate. Suppose that rope A exerts a force of <-700, 590> N on the crate and rope B exerts a force of <880, 880> N on the crate. If the crate weighs 1,250 N, what is the net force acting on the crate? A B Net Force = < , > N

Step 1

Step 1: Calculate the net force in the x-direction by adding the x-components of the forces: Net force in the x-direction = -700 N + 880 N = 180 N Show more…
