the result of two forces acting on a body has a magnitude of 80 pounds. The angles between the resultant and the forces are 20 degrees and 52 degrees. find the magnitude of the large force

Respuesta :

Answer:

Larger force= 66.28 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of the resultant force 80 pounds = 180-(52+20)

The angle of the resultant force 80 pounds = 180-72

The angle of the resultant force 80 pounds = 108°

The larger force is the force with 52°

Let the larger force be x

Magnitude of the larger force

x/sin52 = 80/sin108

X= sin52 *(80/sin 108)

X= 0.7880*(80/0.9511)

X = 0.7780*(84.1131)

X = 66.28 pounds
