Three horizontal forces of magnitudes \(12 \mathrm {~N} , 5 \mathrm {~N}\), and 9 N act along bearings \(000 ^ { \circ } , 150 ^ { \circ }\) and \(270 ^ { \circ }\) respectively (see diagram).
- Show that the component of the resultant of the three forces along bearing \(270 ^ { \circ }\) has magnitude 6.5 N .
- Find the component of the resultant of the three forces along bearing \(000 ^ { \circ }\).
- Hence find the magnitude and bearing of the resultant of the three forces.
