A horse is pulling a canal boat at 12 degrees to the rope. Tension of the rope it 1150 newtons. The canal is moving at a steady speed. Calculate the resistive forces opposing the boats forward motion.

5 answers

Force forward= 1150*cos12

Since there is no acceleration, this pulling force must be equal to resistive force forward.
How did you get cos
just by putting cos(12) in calculator
