There are two forces on the 2.00 kg box in the overhead
Chapter , Problem 7(choose chapter or problem)
There are two forces on the 2.00 kg box in the overhead view of Fig. 5-31, but only one is shown. For \(F_{1}=20.0 \mathrm{N}, a=12.0 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\), and \(\theta=30.0^{\circ}\), find the second force
(a) in unit-vector notation and as
(b) a magnitude and
(c) an angle relative to the positive direction of the x axis.
