To find the magnitude and direction of the resultant force, we can use vector addition.
First, we need to draw a diagram of the two forces. Let's call the force pointing north "F_N" and the force pointing east "F_E".
We can then use the Pythagorean theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant force:
|F_R| = sqrt(F_N^2 + F_E^2)
To find the direction of the resultant force, we can use trigonometry.
tan(theta) = F_E / F_N
where theta is the angle between the resultant force and the force pointing north.
We can then use inverse tangent to solve for theta:
theta = tan^-1(F_E / F_N)
Overall, the magnitude and direction of the resultant force will depend on the magnitudes of the two forces and the angle between them. Without numerical values for F_N and F_E, we cannot calculate the specific magnitude and direction of the resultant force.
