Two forces act on a point. Force \(\mathbf{F}_1 = 30\ \text{N}\) acts due east, and force \(\mathbf{F}_2 = 40\ \text{N}\) acts at \(60^{\circ}\) north of east. Find the magnitude of the resultant force and its direction measured north of east.

Answer Options

A. Resultant magnitude \(=62.0 \ \text{N}\); direction \(=30.0^{\circ}\) north of east
B. Resultant magnitude \(=68.4 \ \text{N}\); direction \(=41.3^{\circ}\) north of east
Correct Answer C. Resultant magnitude \(=60.8\ \text{N}\); direction \(=34.7^{\circ}\) north of east
D. Resultant magnitude \(=55.2 \ \text{N}\); direction \(=28.1^{\circ}\) north of east
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
Resultant magnitude \(=60.8\ \text{N}\); direction \(=34.7^{\circ}\) north of east
