As a sailboat sails 58 m due north, a breeze exerts a constant force f1 on the boat's sails. this force is directed at an angle west of due north. a force f2 of the same magnitude directed due north would do the same amount of work on the sailboat over a distance of just 44 m. what is the angle between the direction of f1 and due north?
