Homework Statement
There is a tug a war match and everyone is pulling on the object?
Person A is pulling with 45N at 45degrees, person B is pulling with 48 N at 110degrees, and person c is pulling at 40N at 200degrees.
1)What is the net force acting on the object based on the pulling of the peoples?
2) If the object has a weight of 36N, what acc do the persons give to the object?
Homework Equations
1)sqrt of (Rx^2+Ry^2)
2)a=f/m
f=force
w=mg
w=weight
g=gravity
The Attempt at a Solution
1)45cos45=31.82
48cos110=-16.42
40cos200=-42.29
Rx=57.69
45sin45=31.82
48sin110=45.11
40sin200=-13.68
Ry=63.25
sqrt of (63.25^2+57.69^2)=85.61N
85.61+40+45=170.61N
2)a=170.61/m
w=mg
36N=m9.8
m=3.67
a=170.61/3.67
a=46.49 m/s^2
