Chapter 2:Composition and Resolution of Forces

Example 2.1, Page no.16

In [2]:
import math
#variable declaration
F_1=100     #First force in N
F_2=150     #Second force in N
theta=45    #Angle between F_1 and F_2 in degree

#calculation
R=math.sqrt((F_1**2)+(F_2**2)+(2*F_1*F_2*math.cos(theta*math.pi/180)))

#Result
print"R=",int(round(R)),"N"
R= 232 N
