A two-dimensional object placed in the xy-plane has three forces acting on it: a force of 3.0 n along the x-axis acting at a poi

nt (3 m, 4 m); a force of 2.0 n along the y-axis acting at (-2 m, 5 m); and a force of 5 n in the negative x direction acting at (-2 m, -3 m). what is the net torque about the point (-1 m, 1 m)?

3 0

the net torque about the point (-1 m, 1 m) is 4 N-m.

The resultant force acting on the object is calculated as

R^2=(-5+3)^2+2^2=2.82 N

Distance of the point from the resultant force

d^2=(-1)^2+1^2=1.414

The net torque acting on the point (-1 m, 1 m) is

T=2.82×1.41=3.98 N-m

What is the difference between virtual images produced by concave, plane, and convex mirrors?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

A concave mirror is a curved mirror that is coated outwards. The outer part of the mirror is always coated. The nature of image formed by an object placed in front of a concave mirror can be real or virtual depending on the distance of the object on the axis from the mirror. The only time the object produces a virtual image is when it is placed between the focus and the pole of the mirror. The virtual image formed is a "MAGNIFIED and upright image"

For a convex mirror, the inner part is always coated and the nature of the image formed by the object doesn't depend on the distance between the image and the mirror. No matter where the object is placed, the image formed will always be virtual, upright and DIMINISHED. This means that magnification is always less than 1.

For a plane mirror, the nature of the image produced by a plane mirror also virtual because it is always formed behind the mirror. The size of the image formed is always THE SAME as that of the object. This means that the magnification is always equal to 1.

a) In summary, the difference between virtual images produced by concave, plane, and convex mirrors is that virtual images produced by concave mirror are MAGNIFIED, virtual images produced by plane mirror are THE SAME SIZE as that of the object and virtual images produced by convex mirrors are always DIMINISHED.

b) Magnification is defined as the ratio of the image distance to the object distance. Mag = v/u

Note that object distances are always positive, hence it is only the image distance that can either be positive or negative which in turn affects the magnification causing it to be positive or negative.

Negative image distance shows that the image is virtual while positive image distance shows that the image is real.

A negative magnification therefore shows that the nature of the image is a virtual image.

Consider the circular motion of a positively charged particle in the plane of this paper, due to a constant magnetic field B~ wh
barxatty [35]

Answer:

the direction of the particle is anti clockwise.

Explanation:

We know that;

- It's a positive particle

- That it's moving in a circle in a magnetic field

- We know the direction of the magnetic field

We can deduce the direction of the magnetic force because it is moving in a circle.

So the force is pointing to the centre of the circle and that's what is keeping it in that circular motion.

Since we know the direction of the magnetic field and force, we can use right hand rule to figure out the direction of the particle since the particle is positive.

Using right hand rule, the thumb which is the particle is pointing anticlockwise. So the direction of the particle is anti clockwise.

If you are rowing a boat, you should be most concerned if you see a wave with which characteristic? help asap pls
3241004551 [841]
The best answer would be C. Amplitude is the measure of the distance between the crest and the center of the line, or the distance between the trough and the center of the line (like wave height). High waves are a sea danger, especially to small ships and rowboats.

What happens in a tug of war if the net forces are balanced and why?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Balanced forces are responsible for unchanging motion. Balanced forces are forces where the effect of one force is cancelled out by another. A tug of war, where each team is pulling equally on the rope, is an example of balanced forces. The forces exerted on the rope are equal in size and opposite in direction.
