Gap-fill
Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.
- Move the tips of forces A, B, and C in this diagram to the correct magnitudes and directions. When this has been done correctly the dotted vector will become solid.
- Pick up vectors A, B and C by their tails, and move them into a tip to tail arrangement. When this has been correctly done the resultant R will appear.
{geogebra_applet('jwussezq ', [['f_a', forceA],['f_b', forceB],['f_c', forceC]])}
Based on this diagram, estimate the magnitude R and direction of the resultant.
R =
