To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the given information and apply the relevant physics concepts. ### Step 1: Define the Forces Let the magnitudes of the two forces be \( F_a \) and \( F_b \). According to the problem, the ratio of their magnitudes is given as \( 3:5 \). We can express these forces in terms of a variable \( x \): - \( F_a = 3x \) - \( F_b = 5x \) ### Step 2: Use the Resultant Force Formula ...
