Grade 11 magnitude and direction of the resultant force acting on the object 3.2 Three forces, P, Q and R, of magnitudes 500 N, 200 N and 300 N respectively, act on a point O in the directions shown in the diagram below. The forces are NOT drawn to scale. 60° 10⁰ P= 500 N 30° Q = 200 N (2) (3) R = 300 N 3.2.1 Refer to the information in the diagram above and give a reason why forces P, Q and R are classified as vectors. physical sciences topic test 3.2.2 Determine the magnitude and direction of the resultant force, either by CALCULATION or by ACCURATE CONSTRUCTION AND MEASUREMENT. (Use scale 10 mm = 50 N.)
