Moving a Pallet Down an Aisle

ID: 1j28dwfrwl

Problem: Two workers drag a heavy pallet along a warehouse aisle with straps. Worker 1 pulls with 1.2 kN at \(25^\circ\) to the aisle. Worker 2 can pull with 900 N. At what angle \(\theta\) to the aisle, on the other side, must worker 2 pull so that the pallet moves along the aisle? What is then the resultant force?
