A chain is attached to a boulder and pulled due north by a monster truck with a force of magnitude 2036 newtons. (A newton is about a quarter of a pound.) A second monster truck pulls on a chain pointed 20∘ west of north with a force of magnitude 3060 newtons. Find the resultant force on the boulder and its direction. (Use decimal notation. Give your answer for the force to one decimal place. Give your answer for the direction of the boulder to the nearest degree. Include the degree symbol in your answer where needed.) resultant force: newtons resultant direction: west of north
