The resultant force of both forces is 15.62 N.

<h3 /><h3>What is resultant?</h3>

The Resultant of forces is a single force obtained when two or more forces are combined.

To calculate the resultant of the force, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • R = √[a²+b²-2abcos∅]..................... Equation 1

Where:

  • R = Resultant of the forces.
  • ∅ = Angle between both forces

From the question,

Given:

  • a = 8 N
  • b = 10 N

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • R = √[8²+10²-2×8×10cos120°]
  • R = √[64+100-160cos120°]
  • R =√ [164-160(-0.5)]
  • R = √[164+80]
  • R = √(244)
  • R = 15.62 N

Hence, the resultant force of both forces is 15.62 N.

Using the parallelogram law of vectors to obtain the resultant, we have the value 16 N.

<h3>What is the resultant force?</h3>

The resultant force is that force that has the same effect in magnitude and direction as two forces acting together. In this case, we have two forces , 8 N and 10 N inclined at an angle of 120 degrees

Using the parallelogram law of vectors to obtain the resultant;

R = √([8²+10²)-2×8×10cos120°]

R = √164 +80

R = 16 N

A cat walks along a plank with mass M= 7.00 kg. The plank is supported by two sawhorses. The center of mass of the plank is a di
solong [7]

Answer:

Before the plank will tip cat will walk 1.652 m

Explanation:

Mass of the cat along with plank m_1=7kg

Center of mass of the plank d_1=0.850m

Mass of cat m_2=3.6kg

We have to find how far right of sawhorse B.

Plank will tip when weight of the cat about B is greater than the torque by the weight of the plank.

Balancing the the torque

m_1gd_1=m_1gd_2

7\times 9.8\times 0.850=3.6\times 9.8\times d_2

d_2=1.652m

What are the characteristics and ph level of acids?
12345 [234]

General Characteristics of Acids & Bases. Chemists measure the strength of an acid or base by its pH, which is a term that refers to the "power of hydrogen.". The midpoint of the pH scale is neutral. Compounds with a pH lower than the midpoint value are acidic while those with a higher value are basic or alkaline.

While online last week, you saw the following advertisement:
Karolina [17]
No scientific testing has been made to check for ion transfer, and the claims are purely empirical. Also, nine out of ten people is hardly a representative sample, and the people can claim whatever they want since "feeling" is subjective. This is most likely a pseudoscientific claim, made to sound legitimate to consumers. The best answer is choice D.

A capacitor with plates separated by a distance d is charged to a potential difference ΔVC. All wires and batteries are disconne
Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial separation of plate = d

final separation = 2d

The capacitance of the capacitor will reduce from C to C/2 because

capacitance = ε A / d

d is distance between plates.

As the batteries are disconnected , charge on the capacitor becomes fixed .

Initial charge on the capacitor

= Capacitance x potential difference

Q = C ΔV

Final charge will remain unchanged

Final charge = C ΔV

Final capacitance = C/2

Final potential difference = charge / capacitance

= C ΔV /  C/2

= 2 ΔV

Potential difference is doubled after the pates are further separated.
