What is the size of the force pulling the car

Reference no: EM13538183

A student's car stalls right in front of a speed bump while she is on her way to physics class. To pull it over the bump, she ties a cable to her bumper and to a nearby tree, and pulls with a force, F, of 86.0 lbs (383 N) at the midpoint in a perpendicular direction. If the angle is 12.4, what is the size of the force pulling the car in lbs?
