Three boys are pulling a heavy trolley by means of 3 ropes. The boy in the middle is exerting a pull of `100 N`. The other 2 boys, whose ropes both make an angle of `30^(@)` with the centre rope, are pulling with forces of `50sqrt(3) N` & `100sqrt(3)N` . Find the magnitude of the resultant pull on the trolley.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`327.9N`

`vec(F)=(100hat(c)+50sqrt(3)hat(c)+100sqrt(3) cos30hat(j))+(100sqrt(3)-50sqrt(3))sin 30hat(j)`
`|vec(F)|=327.9 N`
