Question:

If a ship goes 6N North, but gets pushed 7N Eastward by wind, what's the magnitude and direction of the Resultant Force.

Author: eric_galvao



Answer:

So you would draw it down first. Then from the starting point, link it with the end point, to make a trinngle. Now you would do Pythagoras. [c²=a²+b²] Your a and b would be 6 and 7. Follow the formula and you would get 9.2N North East
