Capitolo 8, Problema 27
Two forces act on a point in the plane. The angle between the two forces is given. Find the magnitude of the resultant force.
forces of 250 and 450 newtons, forming an angle of 85°
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the two forces and the angle between them. Here, the forces are 250 N and 450 N, and the angle between them is 85°.
Recall the formula for the magnitude of the resultant force when two forces act at an angle \( \theta \):
\[ R = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2 + 2 F_1 F_2 \cos(\theta)} \]
Substitute the given values into the formula:
\[ R = \sqrt{250^2 + 450^2 + 2 \times 250 \times 450 \times \cos(85^\circ)} \]
Calculate the cosine of the angle \( \cos(85^\circ) \) using a calculator or trigonometric tables.
Evaluate the expression inside the square root step-by-step, then take the square root to find the magnitude of the resultant force.

Concetti chiave
Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.
Vector Addition of Forces
Forces acting at a point can be represented as vectors. The resultant force is found by vector addition, combining both magnitude and direction. Understanding how to add vectors graphically or analytically is essential to determine the overall effect of multiple forces.

Adding Vectors Geometrically
Law of Cosines
The Law of Cosines relates the lengths of sides in a triangle to the cosine of one of its angles. It is used to find the magnitude of the resultant vector when two vectors form a known angle, by treating the forces as sides of a triangle and the resultant as the third side.
