A barge is pulled by the two tugboats shown in the following figure. One tugboat pulls on the barge with a force of magnitude 4000 units of force at 15 ° above the line AB (see the figure and the other tugboat pulls on the barge with a force of magnitude 5000 units of force at 12 ° below the line AB. Resolve the pulling forces to their scalar components and find the components of the resultant force pulling on the barge. What is the magnitude of the resultant pull? What is its direction relative to the line AB?

Problem 3: We analyze the force that Nito exerts to lift a box of food from the warehouse floor to a platform that stands at a height of 3.5 feet. The force you apply to lift the box is 45 pounds.Determine:a) the scalar components X and Y of the force.b) the scalar components X´ and Y´ of the force.c) Express the force F in Cartesian vector form for the axes (X and Y) and (X´ and Y´).
