If homeboy joe is pushing a box with force of 57.0 in the horizontal direction and -15.0 in the vertical direction. What is the magnitude of joes net force?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The magnitude of joes net force is 58.9.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the net force is given by:

[tex] F_{net} = \sqrt{F_{x}^{2} + F_{y}^{2}} [/tex]

Where:

[tex] F_{x}[/tex]: is the force in the horizontal direction = 57.0

[tex] F_{y}[/tex]: is the force in the vertical direction = -15.0

[tex] F_{net} = \sqrt{(57.0)^{2} + (-15.0)^{2}} = 58.9 [/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of joes net force is 58.9.

I hope it helps you!
