Astlie force of that field is exerted at right angles to A… … 3JO resultant of the two forces, each having a strength of i, will then be representedby the diagonal a d, and, since this diagonal represents, in direction and magnitude,the resultant of the two forces a b, ac, a needle acted upon by two such forces would bedeflected to a position, or an…
