Two forces are applied to a car in an effort to accelerate it. The first force, F1 = 326 N, is applied at an angle α = 40° to the forward dashed line. The second force, F2 = 488 N, is applied at an angle β = 8° to the forward dashed line.

Question

a. What is the resultant of these two forces?
blank N at blank degrees.
If the car has a mass of 2900 kg, what acceleration does it have? (Disregard friction.)
blank m/s^2 at blank degrees

Answer 1
