<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Resultant of two vectors having opposite direction is the difference of the two displacements having the same direction as the larger vector. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u><u> </u>

Resultant of two vectors is obtained by performing the vector addition operation. When the directions of both vectors are same the resultant’s direction will also be the same as the inputs. When two vectors have opposite directions, one direction will be taken positive making one vector positive and the other negative.

By performing addition of a positive and negative number we are actually taking the difference between both. Thus performing vector addition of two vectors with opposite directions is equivalent to finding the difference between the vectors. Consider a system consisting of a solid block, on which two forces F1 and F2 act in the opposite direction.

One force will be considered positive and the other is considered negative. The resultant is given by the difference of two force vectors. Displacement of the block will be in the direction of the greater force.

A hockey puck is sliding at a constant rate of 2m/s on a frictionless surface. How fast will the puck be moving after 10 sec
AnnyKZ [126]
2m/s because the hockey puck is traveling at a constant speed ( acceleration is 0 ). Unless something acts on the hockey puck it will travel 2 m/s forever.

An airplane propeller is rotating at 1900 rpm (rev/min).
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We have to convert to angular velocity in rads-1 as follows;

Angular velocity in rad/s = 2π/60 × 1900 rpm = 199 rad/s

Given that

angular velocity =angle turned /time taken

Time taken = angle turned/angular velocity

Converting 35° to radians we have;

35 × π/180 = 0.61 radians

Time taken = 0.61 radians/199 rad/s

Time taken = 0.0031 seconds
