A tractor pulls a tree trunk across a horizontal piece of ground. If the force in a chain is 3000N and the chain forms an angle of 30 degrees with the ground, calculate the force with which the tree is pulled across the ground and the force with which the tree is lifted

1 answer

a. Fx = 3000*Cos30 = 2598 N.

b. Fy = 3000*sin30 = 1500 N. = Lifting
force.
