Answer:

(a) \vec F_{\parallel} = -\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{103}{13}\,j , (b) \vec F_{\perp} = \frac{102}{13}\,i -\frac{68}{13}\,j, (c) W = -51

Explanation:

The statement is incomplete:

The force on an object is \vec F = -17\,j. For the vector \vec v = 2\,i +3\,j. Find: (a) The component of \vec F parallel to \vec v, (b) The component of \vec F perpendicular to \vec v, and (c) The work W, done by force \vec F through displacement \vec v.

(a) The component of \vec F parallel to \vec v is determined by the following expression:

\vec F_{\parallel} = (\vec F \bullet \hat {v} )\cdot \hat{v}

Where \hat{v} is the unit vector of \vec v, which is determined by the following expression:

\hat{v} = \frac{\vec v}{\|\vec v \|}

Where \|\vec v\| is the norm of \vec v, whose value can be found by Pythagorean Theorem.

Then, if \vec F = -17\,j and \vec v = 2\,i +3\,j, then:

\|\vec v\| =\sqrt{2^{2}+3^{3}}

\|\vec v\|=\sqrt{13}

\hat{v} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{13}} \cdot(2\,i + 3\,j)

\hat{v} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\,i+ \frac{3}{\sqrt{13}}\,j

\vec F \bullet \hat{v} = (0)\cdot \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{13}} \right)+(-17)\cdot \left(\frac{3}{\sqrt{13}} \right)

\vec F \bullet \hat{v} = -\frac{51}{\sqrt{13}}

\vec F_{\parallel} = \left(-\frac{51}{\sqrt{13}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\,i+\frac{3}{\sqrt{13}}\,j  \right)

\vec F_{\parallel} = -\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{153}{13}\,j

(b) Parallel and perpendicular components are orthogonal to each other and the perpendicular component can be found by using the following vectorial subtraction:

\vec F_{\perp} = \vec F - \vec F_{\parallel}

Given that \vec F = -17\,j and \vec F_{\parallel} = -\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{153}{13}\,j, the component of \vec F perpendicular to \vec v is:

\vec F_{\perp} = -17\,j -\left(-\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{153}{13}\,j  \right)

\vec F_{\perp} = \frac{102}{13}\,i + \left(\frac{153}{13}-17 \right)\,j

\vec F_{\perp} = \frac{102}{13}\,i -\frac{68}{13}\,j

(c) The work done by  \vec F through displacement \vec v is:

W = \vec F \bullet \vec v

W = (0)\cdot (2)+(-17)\cdot (3)

W = -51

Explain Ionic and Covalent bonding..
Elis [28]
Ionic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, and is the primary interaction occurring in ionic compounds.A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

Firlakuza [10]

V = u + at where u is initial velocity (15 m/s), a is acceleration (2m/s^2) and t is time (15 seconds)

V = 15 + 2 X 15
