If you pick up your pencil and draw a picture of these vectors, you'll see that they form a right triangle.  Its hypotenuse is the resultant vector.

       Length of the resultant  =  √ ( |X|²  +  |Y|² )

                                         =  √ (48² + 14²)

                                         =  √ (2,304 + 196)

                                         =  √ 2,500 in²

                                         =        50 inches

What happens to a path of a light ray parallel to the principal axis, after it passes through a converging
Simora [160]

Answer: The ray that passes through the focal point on the way to the lens will refract and travel parallel to the principal axis. ... All three rays should intersect at exactly the same point.

Explanation: Once these incident rays strike the lens, refract them according to the three rules of refraction for converging lenses.

To protect her new two-wheeler, Iroda Bike
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The length of chain she is allowed is 1.169 ft

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The linear density of the chain = 0.83 lb/ft

The weight limit of the chain she wants = 1.4 lb

The formula for linear density = Weight/length

Therefore, in order to keep the chain below 1.4 lb, we have;

Linear density = Weight/length

Therefore;

The maximum length she wants = Weight/(Linear density)

Which gives;

The maximum length she wants = 1.4 lb/(0.83 lb/ft) =1.169 ft

Therefore;

The length of chain she is allowed = 1.169 ft.

Explain why average velocity in one dimension can be positive or negative.
Softa [21]
Imagine an object is moving in one dimension on a number line, and for this we'll say that the numbers on the line are a metre apart. If the object moves from 2 m to 7 m, the change in position is 7-2=+5 metres. But if the object moves back from 7 m to 2 m, the change in position is 2-7=-5 metres. since velocity =  \frac{change in position}{time}, and time is always positive, velocity will be positive in one direction and negative in the other direction.
