Answer:
29.15 N
Explanation:
Applying,
Pythagoras theorem,
a² = b²+c²................ Equation 1
Where a = resultant of the two forces, b = first force, c = second force.
From the diagram,
Given: b = 15 N, c = 25 N
Substitute these values into equation 1
a² = 15²+25²
a² = 225+625
a² = 850
a = √850
a = 29.15 N
Hence the resultant of the two forces is 29.15 N
