Question #15905 Physics 2D Motion Vector Operations 1 Answer Sunayan S · Rachel Jul 4, 2017 The resultant force will be 6000sqrt3N. Explanation: Suppose, vec (AB) and vec (AC )are the two boats and vec( AD) is the direction of ship. We know the formula of resultant is AD=sqrt(AC^2+CD^2+2×AB×CD×cos 60 AD=sqrt(2(6000)^2+2×6000×6000×(1/2) AD=sqrt(3×6000^2) AD=6000sqrt3 final answer Answer link Related questions What are vectors used for?
