The additional force necessary to bring the object
into a state of equilibrium is

Respuesta :

The additional force necessary to bring the object into a state of equilibrium is 28.28 N.

Concurrent forces

Concurrent forces are forces acting at a single point on the same plane.

Resultant of the forces

The additional force necessary to bring the object into a state of equilibrium is calculated as follows;

[tex]R = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2} \\\\R = \sqrt{20^2 + 20^2} \\\\R = 28.28 \ N[/tex]

Thus, the additional force necessary to bring the object into a state of equilibrium is 28.28 N.

The additional force necessary to bring the object into a state of equilibrium is 28 N Northeast

Data obtained from the question

  • Force due East (F₁) = 20 N
  • Force due North (F₂) = 20 N
  • Resultant force (F) =?

How to determine the resultant force

The force (i.e the resultant force) that will balance the object can be obtained as follow:

F = √(F₁² + F₂²)

F = √(20² + 20²)

F = √(400 + 400)

F = √800

F ≈ 28 N Northeast

Therefore, the force that will balance the object is 28 N Northeast
