Solve Applied Problems Involving Vectors
-Two forces, F1\mathbf { F } _ { \mathbf { 1 } } and F2\mathbf { F } _ { \mathbf { 2 } } , of magnitude 60 and 70 pounds, respectively, act on an object. The direction of F1\mathbf { F } _ { \mathbf { 1 } } is N40E\mathrm { N } 40 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { E } and the direction of F2\mathrm { F } _ { 2 } is N40W\mathrm { N } 40 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { W } . Find the magnitude and the direction angle of the resultant force. Express the direction angle to the nearest tenth of a degree.


A) F=99.37;θ=93.7\| \mathrm { F } \| = 99.37 ; \quad \theta = 93.7 ^ { \circ }
B) F=92.20;θ=89.4| \mathbf { F } | = 92.20 ; \quad \theta = 89.4 ^ { \circ }
C) F=92.20;θ=80\mid \mathbf { F } \| = 92.20 ; \theta = 80 ^ { \circ }
D) F=94.63;θ=87.2| F | = 94.63 ; \theta = 87.2 ^ { \circ }
