Equivalent forces derivation problem.
EXAMPLE:
Derive the formula for F3 in terms of the experimentally measured quantities m1, m2, 1, and 2.
[Answer: F3=m1gcos1+m2gcos2.]
Make sure you understand how this formula was derived.
QUESTION:
If the mass of both weights is 150 gm, the first mass is located 20 degrees north of east, the second mass is located 20 degrees south of east, and the transducer sensitivity is 0.5 volts/Newton, how large a voltage do you expect to measure? Assume the transducer has been properly zeroed so that V = 0 when F3=0.
The answer should be in volts.
Thank you!

Correction: it should be F3=m1gcos(theta1)+m2gcos(theta2)
what kind of answer is that
Judy posted the question. Judy made a mistake so she commented with corrections. It's not an answer idiot.
