Answer

$\vec F_3=(5.2915N)\hat x-(6.0008N)\hat y$

Work Step by Step

We know that $\vec F=\vec F_1+\vec F_2+\vec F_3$ $\implies m\vec a=\vec F_1+\vec F_2+\vec F_3$ $\implies (5.95Kg)[(1.17m/s^2)\hat x+(-0.664m/s^2)\hat y]=(3.22N)\hat x+(-1.55N)\hat x+(2.05N)\hat y+F_{3x}\hat x+F_{3y}\hat y$ This simplifies to: $F_{3x}\hat x+F_{3y}\hat y=(5.2915N)\hat x-(6.0008N)\hat y$ $\implies \vec F_3=(5.2915N)\hat x-(6.0008N)\hat y$
