Forces can be added together only if they are?

2 answers:

5 0

Force is a vector quantity which has magnitude as well as direction.Before attempting to add the different forces we should very clearly understand the object under consideration first. After the system is chosen,we should count only these forces which are acting only on the object under consideration.

The forces may be along a line. They may be planar or non-planar ,but they must act only on the same body .If the forces are acting on different bodies ,we can't add them as we can't get a specific direction between them. The objects may be on different plane.The force has no impact on the body under consideration as it has no role in changing the state of motion or rest of the body.

Hence forces can be added only if they are acting on the .same object.

Hence option 1 is right.

The answer is a) because otherwise the forces can't be added as the objects will be different.

Bus starts from rest if the acceleration of the bus is 0.5 MS squared what will be the velocity at the end of two minutes and wh

Nutka1998 [239]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the bus, u = 0

Acceleration of the bus, a = 0.5 m/s²

Let v is the velocity at the end of 2 minutes. The change in velocity divided by time equals acceleration.

So,

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\v=u+at\\\\v=0+0.5\times 120\\\\v=60\ m/s$

Let d is the distance cover during that time. So,

$v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{(60)^2}{2\times 0.5}\\\\d=3600\ m$

So, the final speed is 60 m/s and the distance covered during that time is 3600 m.

1.) Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity in many species of plants and animals because of meiosis. During meiosis, crossing-over occurs and changes up genes in the chromosomes. Each gamete (sperm and egg), have half the chromosomes (23) and combine to have 46 chromosomes. This is how you get traits from your parents that make you different.

2.) Asexual reproduction occurs when a single parent copies its own DNA and genes and grows an identical version or clone of itself.
