Two trucks are pulling a large storage container north, as shown in the figure below. The sum of the forces $\(\overrightarrow{F_1}\)$ and $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ that are exerted on the container by the horizontal steel cables in the north direction are also parallel to line "L". Note that $\(\overrightarrow{F_1}\)$ = 4400 N. Calculate $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ and the magnitude of $\(\overrightarrow{F_1}\)$ + $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ .

• A. $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ exerts 6330 N, magnitude of total force is 8538 N
• B. $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ exerts 5420 N, magnitude of total force is 8538 N
• C. $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ exerts 6330 N, magnitude of total force is 8358 N
• D. $\(\overrightarrow{F_2}\)$ exerts 8358 N, magnitude of total force is 6330 N

Answer: (A)
