Four horizontal forces act at a point O and are in equilibrium. The magnitudes of the forces are F N, G N, 15 N and F N, and the forces act in directions as shown in the diagram.
\((i) Show that F = 41.0, correct to 3 significant figures.\)
(ii) Find the value of G.
Three horizontal forces of magnitudes F N, 63 N and 25 N act at O, the origin of the x-axis and y-axis. The forces are in equilibrium. The force of magnitude F N makes an angle ฮธ anticlockwise with the positive x-axis. The force of magnitude 63 N acts along the negative y-axis. The force of magnitude 25 N acts at tan-1 0.75 clockwise from the negative x-axis (see diagram). Find the value of F and the value of tan ฮธ.
