Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the magnitude of a force vector is 81.0 newtons (N).

The x component of this vector is directed along the +x axis and has a magnitude of 72.6 N.

To find the angle between the force and x axis

Let t be the angle between the force and x axis

Resolving the force along x axis,

we have [tex]81 cost = 72.6[/tex]

[tex]cost =\frac{72.6}{81} =0.8963\\t =cos^{-1} (0.8963) =26.3245[/tex]

26.3245 degrees is answer.
