A 200 N force is applied to an object (that is at the origin) at 30 degrees above the horizontal on the positive x axis. A second force is applied at 20 degrees below the horizontal on the negative x axis. In order for the object to be in equilibrium in the y direction, what must the magnitude of this force be?

    294.11 N

    Explanation:

    F1 = 200 N

    Let the other force is F2 = F = ?

    Resolve the components of F1 and F2.

    As the object is in equilibrium in y direction, it means the net force in y direction is zero.

    So, F1 Sin 30 = F2 Sin 20

    200 x 0.5 = F x 0.34

    F = 294.11 N

    The magnitude of force is 294.11 N
