The formula for finding the resultant force is F = √(Fx² + Fy²), where Fx and Fy represent the x and y components of the forces, respectively.
The x and y components of a force can be calculated using the following equations: Fx = F * cosθ and Fy = F * sinθ, where θ is the angle between the force and the x-axis.
Yes, the Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the resultant force. The magnitude of the resultant force is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the x and y components of the force.
The unit of measurement for resultant force is typically Newtons (N), which is the standard unit for force in the International System of Units (SI).
The direction of the resultant force can be found by using the inverse tangent (tan⁻¹) function. Simply take the inverse tangent of the y component divided by the x component (θ = tan⁻¹(Fy/Fx)). This will give you the angle between the resultant force and the x-axis.
