Momentum formula - P=MV
P=MV
P= (3.5 kg)(6 m/s) - multiply
P= 21 kg x m/s to the east

Is cold fusion science or pseudoscience

kondor19780726 [428]

The experiments that claimed to demonstrate cold fusion were found
to have been faulty by others who reviewed them. Also, nobody else
was able to reproduce the finding in other laboratories. In the world
of Science, this pretty much says that the initial claims were unfounded.

A force of 5N and a force of 8N act to the same point and are inclined at 45degree to each other. Find the magnitude and directi

Alex_Xolod [135]

Magnitude: 12.1 N.
Direction: 17.0° to the 8 N force.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Refer to the diagram attached (created with GeoGebra). Consider the 5 N force in two directions: parallel to the 8 N force and normal to the 8 N force.

$\displaystyle F_{\text{1, Parallel}} = F_1 \cdot \cos{45^\textdegree} = \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}$ .
$\displaystyle F_{\text{1, Normal}} = F_1 \cdot \sin{45^\textdegree} = \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}$ .

The sum of forces on each direction will be the resultant force on that direction:

Resultant force parallel to the 8 N force: $(8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})\;\text{N}$ .
Resultant force normal to the 8 N force: $\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}\;\text{N}$ .

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the magnitude of the resultant force.

$\displaystyle \Sigma F = \sqrt{{(8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})}^2 + {(\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2})}^2} = 12.1\;\text{N}$ (3 sig. fig.).

The size of the angle between the resultant force and the 8 N force can be found from the tangent value of the angle. Tangent of the angle:

$\displaystyle \dfrac{\Sigma F_\text{Normal}}{\Sigma F_\text{Parallel}} = \dfrac{8 + \dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}}{\dfrac{5\sqrt{2}}{2}} \approx 0.306491$ .

Find the size of the angle using inverse tangent:

$\displaystyle \arctan{ \dfrac{\Sigma F_\text{Normal}}{\Sigma F_\text{Parallel}}} = \arctan{0.306491} = 17.0\textdegree$ .

In other words, the resultant force is 17.0° relative to the 8 N force.
