A particle at the origin is experiencing three forces. The first one has a magnitude of 57 lb and is directed towards (2,-4,5), while the second one has a magnitude of 32 lb and is directed towards (-1,-2,-8). If the net force is 41 lb in the direction of (-5,-1,4), what is the x-component of the third force acting on the particle (in lb)?

there is no correct list among the choices you've provided.

the list might look something like this:

-- baby human

-- piccolo

-- flute

-- soprano singer

-- trumpet

-- tenor singer

-- trombone

-- baritone singer

-- baritone horn

-- bass singer

-- tuba

since i had to make up the list myself, i made it easy on myself, and i didn't try to shuffle the string instruments and woodwinds into it too.

we need to know the time interval during which the force acts. impulse of force = momentum change
