A baby elephant is stuck in a mud hole. To help pull it out, game keepers use a rope to apply a force F(vector)_A, as part a of the drawing shows. By itself, however, force F(vector)_A is insufficient. Therefore, two additional forces F(vector)_Band F(vector)_Care applied, as in part b of the drawing, Each of these additional forces has the same magnitude F. The magnitude of the resultant force acting on the elephant in part b of the drawing is k times larger than that in part a. Find the ratio F/F_Awhen k 5 2.00?
