4. Two tugs are pulling a large ocean liner out to sea

4. Two tugs are pulling a large ocean liner out to sea on ropes. Tug A exerts a force of 51 kN at an angle of 30 to the forward direction and tug B exerts a force of 68 kN at angle of 60. 5. TUG A (51 kN) 300 LINER FORWARD DIRECTION 60 TUG B (68 kN) The resultant force on the liner due to the tugs is about: A. 85 kN B. 92 kN C. 119 KN D. 123 KN Due to the tugs pulling the liner in the last question (Q 25) the liner will start to move at an angle to the forward direction of about: A. 53.1 B. 36.8 C. 23.1 D. Zero degrees
