Q: An object is being acted upon by three forces and moves with a constant velocity. One force is $$60 \\ \mathrm{N}$$ east, the second is $$75 \\ \mathrm{N}$$ along a direction making a counterclockwise angle of $$150^\\circ$$ with the first force. What is the magnitude and direction of the third force, measured clockwise from the x-axis?

Question 2

A block is on a frictionless table, on Earth. The block accelerates at $$5.3 \ \mathrm{m/s^2$}$$ when a $$10 \ \mathrm{N}$$ horizontal force is applied to it.
