Two forces of 7 lb. and 14 lb. act on a body at right angles to each other. Find their resultant. Find the angle their resultant force makes with the force of 14 lb.
Answered by drwls
The resultant is the hypotenuse of the force vector triangle,
sqrt(49 + 196) = ___

The angle of the resultant force with respect to the 14 lb force is
arctan 1/2 = ___ degrees.
