A box of mass \(m\) is in equilibrium under the application of three forces as shown below. If the magnitude of \(\mathbf{F}_1\) is \(10 \mathrm{~N}\), what is the magnitude of \(\mathbf{F}_3\) ?

  1. A 5N
  2. B 15 N
  3. C 20 N
  4. D 30 N
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 20 N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

All forces are resolved in two perpendicular axes \((X\) and \(Y)\) as shown in the figure. Since, block of mass \(m\) is in equilibrium. Hence, resolving the forces in \(x\)-direction, we get…
