The correct Answer is:
To determine which figure represents a force of 10 N acting at an angle of 30 degrees east of north, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Direction - The force is acting at an angle of 30 degrees east of north. This means that if we draw a line pointing directly north (0 degrees), we will measure 30 degrees towards the east from that line. ### Step 2: Visualize the Angle - To visualize this, imagine a coordinate system where: - The upward direction represents north (0 degrees). - The right direction represents east (90 degrees). - The angle of 30 degrees east of north will be between the north line and the line representing the force. ### Step 3: Draw the Force Vector - From the north direction, draw a line that makes a 30-degree angle towards the east. This line will represent the force vector of 10 N. ### Step 4: Analyze the Options - Now, we need to look at the provided figures and identify which one has a force vector that points in the direction we just described (30 degrees east of north). - Check each option: - If the vector points towards northeast and the angle is measured from the north axis, it is likely the correct option. - If the vector points towards east or south, or if the angle is measured from the east axis, it is incorrect. ### Step 5: Identify the Correct Option - After analyzing the options: - Option 1 points in the direction of northeast and is measured correctly from the north axis, making it the correct representation of the force. - Options 2, 3, and 4 do not match the required direction. ### Conclusion - The correct figure representing the force of 10 N in the direction of 30 degrees east of north is **Option 1**. ---
