The resultant vector is 5.2 cm at a direction of 12⁰ west of north.

<h3>Resultant of the two vectors</h3>

The resultant of the two vectors is calculated as follows;

R = a² + b² - 2ab cos(θ)

where;

  • θ is the angle between the two vectors =  45° + (90 - 57) = 78⁰
  • a is the first vector
  • b is the second vector

R² = (3.7)² + (4.5)² - (2 x 3.7 x 4.5) cos(78)

R² = 27.02

R = 5.2 cm

<h3>Direction of the vector</h3>

θ = 90 - 78⁰

θ = 12⁰

Thus, the resultant vector is 5.2 cm at a direction of 12⁰ west of north.

A moving object always has energy in its?
Flura [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic and potential energies are found in all objects. If an object is moving, it is said to have kinetic energy (KE). Potential energy (PE) is energy that is "stored" because of the position and/or arrangement of the object.

12.0-kg block is pushed across a rough horizontal surface by a force that is angled 30.0◦below thehorizontal. The magnitude of t
drek231 [11]

Answer: Fr = 26.53 N

Explanation: The constant force exerted on the block by the surface is the frictional force.

This frictional force is as a result of interaction between the body and the surface.

According to newton's second law of motion,

F - Fr = ma

F=applied force

Fr = magnitude of frictional force

m = mass of object = 12kg

a = acceleration of object = 3.2m/s²

The applied force (F= 75 N) is inclined at an angle of 30° to the horizontal thus making it have 2 components of forces given below

Fx = 75 * cos 30 = 64.95 N (horizontal component)

Fy = 75 * sin 30 = 37.5 N ( vertical motion)

The body moves across the surface, hence the horizontal component of force is responsible for motion.

F = 64.95 N

By substituting the parameters, we have that

64.96 - Fr = 12 * 3.2

64.96 - Fr = 38.4

Fr = 64.96 - 38.4

Fr = 26.53 N

Do balanced forces change an objects motion
meriva

If the group of all forces acting on an object is balanced,
then the effect of all of them is the same as if there were
no forces at all on the object.  In that case, the object
continues moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
