Find the resultant of two forces of 300N each if the angle between them is 90 degrees.

Task data: F1 = F2 = F (value of each acting force) = 300 N; α (angle between the given forces) = 90º.

In the case of applying forces at an angle of 90º to each other, their resultant can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem: Fр = √ (F1 ^ 2 + F2 ^ 2) = √ (2F ^ 2).

Let’s calculate: Fр = √ (2 * 300 ^ 2) = 424.3 N.

Answer: The net force is 424.3 N.
