$$\mathrm{Two}\mathrm{horses}\mathrm{pull}\mathrm{horizontally}\mathrm{on}$$$$\mathrm{ropes}\mathrm{attached}\mathrm{to}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{stump}.\mathrm{The}$$$$\mathrm{two}\mathrm{forces}\mathrm{F}\mathrm{and}\mathrm{T}\mathrm{that}\mathrm{they}$$$$\mathrm{applied}\mathrm{to}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{stump}\mathrm{are}\mathrm{such}\mathrm{that}$$$$\mathrm{the}\mathrm{resultant}\mathrm{R}\mathrm{has}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{magnitude}$$$$\mathrm{equal}\mathrm{to}\mathrm{F}\mathrm{and}\mathrm{makes}\mathrm{an}\mathrm{angle}\mathrm{of}$$$$90°\mathrm{with}\mathrm{F}.\mathrm{Let}\mathrm{F}=1300\mathrm{N}\mathrm{and}$$$$\mathrm{R}=1300\mathrm{N}.\mathrm{Find}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{value}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{T}.$$

$$\mathrm{T}=1300\times \sqrt{2}$$$$$$$$\mathrm{as}\mathrm{vector}$$$$\mathbf{R}=\mathbf{F}+\mathbf{T}$$$$1300\mathrm{j}=1300\mathrm{i}+\mathbf{T}$$$$\Rightarrow \mathbf{T}=-1300\mathrm{i}+1300\mathrm{j}$$$$\mathrm{T}=1300\sqrt{2}$$
