The figure shows a potato at rest on an inclined plane with \( \theta=34^{\circ} \). Three forces act on the potato and the net force is the vector sum: \( \vec{F}_{\text {net }}=\sum_{i} \vec{F}_{i}=\vec{F}_{1}+\vec{F}_{2}+\vec{F}_{3} \). Calculate the magnitude of the net force component parallel to the inclined plane if \( F_{1}=30.3 \mathrm{~N} \), \( F_{2}=14 \mathrm{~N} \), and \( F_{3}=33 \mathrm{~N} \). Record your numerical answer below, assuming three significant figures.
