I just stumbled across this problem during my physics homework and I'm not sure I understand the concept. I'd appreciate if someone could help.
:wink:
A car is being pulled out of the mud by two forces and are bisected by a 30 degree angle. The magnitude of the force applied by each rope is 2900 Newtons. Arrange the force vectors tail to head and use the graphical technique to answer the following questions: a) How much force would a single rope need to apply to accomplish the same effect as the two forces added together? b) How would the single rope be directed relative to the bisecting line?
ehhh... I hope someone else understands this...
