Select the correct answer. A force F making an angle with the horizontal is acting on an object resting on the table. Which stat
ement is true for the motion of sliding the object on the table? A. It is independent of all the forces acting on the object. B. It depends only on the forces acting along the x-axis. C. It depends only on the forces acting along the y-axis. D. It depends only on the normal force acting on the object. E. It depends only on the frictional force acting on the object.
The correct option is B. The forces acting along the x-axis affect the motion of sliding the object on the table.
The force F is a vector that can be split into its rectangular components.
Since the force F makes an angle theta with the horizontal, the horizontal component F cos theta acts along the x-direction and the vertical component F sin theta acts along the y-direction
As the object slides on the table, it is undergoing horizontal motion
This means that the force acting on it has to be horizontal as well
The component of the force acting along the x-axis affects the sliding motion of the object on the table.
The US and Brits wouldn't have access to Russia to send supplies and Russia is cold so both countries would have to wait till spring to counter-attack.
