Question

two forces of magnitude 8 and 10 act at right angles to each other. find the resultant force,describing the direction of the resultant with respect to the force with magnitude 8.

Answer 1

\[R ^{2}=10^{2}+8^{2}---> R=2\sqrt{41}\]

Answer 2

i can't find the direction

Answer 3

Answer 4

You need to find the angle

Answer 5

In simple terms.

Answer 6

i assumed direction of '10' vector is downwards,and direction of '8' vector is to right
if i reverse both these directions,my resultant vector direction will also reverse
