Question:medium
Three forces 3 N, 4 N, and 5 N act at a point. For equilibrium, angle between 3 N and 4 N is
Three forces 3 N, 4 N, and 5 N act at a point. For equilibrium, angle between 3 N and 4 N is
Show Hint
This problem is based on the Pythagorean triple $(3, 4, 5)$.
For any forces that form a right-angled triangle, the angle between the two base forces is always $90^\circ$.
