The old view of the solar system was geocentric, which means that people believed that the Earth is the center of the universe. However, with the discoveries of Galileo, Newton, and Copernicus, evidence was brought forth that the solar system is actually heliocentric, which means that the sun is the center of the universe.

Answer:

(i) See attached image for the drawing

(ii) net force given in component form: (20, 20)N with magnitude: $\sqrt{800} \,\,\,N$

Explanation:

First try to write all forces in vector component form:

The force F1 acting at 45 degrees would have multiplication factors of $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ on both axes, to take care of the sine and cosine projections. Therefore, the:

x-component of F1 is $F1_x=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N$

y-component of F1 is $F1_y=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N$

As far as force F2, it is given already in x and y components, then:

x-component of F2 = 8 N

y-component of F2 = -6 N (negative meaning pointing down the y-axis)

Force F3 has only component (upwards) in the y-direction

x-component of F3 = 0 N

y-component of F3 =14 N

The additions of all these component by component, gives the resultant force (R) acting on the 5 kg mass:

x-component of R = 12 + 8 = 20 N

y-component of R = 12 + 14 - 6 = 20 N

Therefore, the acceleration that the mass receives due to this force is given in component form as:

x-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = $4\,\,\,m/s^2$

y-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = $4\,\,\,m/s^2$

Now we can calculate the components of the velocity of this mass after 2 seconds of being accelerated by this force, using the formula of acceleration times time:

x-component of the velocity is: $v_x=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s$

y-component of the velocity is: $v_y=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s$

The bearing could be the below:
oppositely charged, same initial direction
same charge, opposite initial direction

You can decide by utilizing your correct hand and put your fingers toward the attractive field (North to South). Thumb toward present or charged molecule. The course of your palm will demonstrate the heading of compelling set on a decidedly charged molecule and the bearing of the back of your hand will demonstrate the bearing of a contrarily charged molecule.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer: 6000N/m^2

Explanation:

Weight =1500N

Area =0.5m^2

Pressure =1500/(0.5^2)

=6000N/m^2

Note: Newton is denoted by 'N' (Capital) and use '^' for powers.

A 1.0-kg block and a 2.0-kg block are pressed together on a horizontal frictionless surface with a compressed very light spring

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

4. both blocks will both have the same amount of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When the blocks are released free from the compression force, the spring exerts equal and opposite force on each block but the block with heavier (double) mass will attain slower ( half ) speed as compared to the lighter block according to the law of inertia. This works in synchronization to energy conservation.

Spring force is given as:

$F=k.\Delta x$
