Question: Two forces, vec ( F ) 1 and vec ( F ) 2 , act at a point, as shown in ( Figure 1 )

Two forces, vec(F)1 and vec(F)2, act at a point, as shown in (
Figure 1). vec(F)1 has a magnitude of 8.60 N and is directed at an angle of =57.0 above the negative x axis in the second quadrant. vec(F)2 has a magnitude of 6.80 N and is directed at an angle of =53.1 below the negative x axis in the third quadrant.
