Question: Consider the forces shown in ( Figure 1 ) . Figure 1 of 1 Two forces act on a screw eye attached to a vertical

Consider the forces shown in (Figure 1).
Figure1 of 1
Two forces act on a screw eye attached to a vertical wall. The x and y axes pass through the center of the hook. The x axis points horizontally to the right. The y axis points vertically upward. The first force labeled as F subscript 1 equals 40 pounds and acts upward and to the right, making an angle of 30 degrees with the positive y axis. The second force labeled as F subscript 2 equals 50 pounds and acts downward and to the right, making an angle of 20 degrees with the positive x axis.
