Answer:

= 0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportion to the rate of change of linear momentum.

Therefore; F = ma , where F is the Force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

Thus; a = F/m

but; F = 5 N, and m = 10 kg

 a = 5 /10

= 0.5 m/s²

A vector → A has a magnitude of 56.0 m and points in a direction 30.0° below the negative x axis. A second vector, → B , has a m

MissTica

Answer:

The magnitude of the vector $\vec{C}$ is 107.76 m

Explanation:

To find the components of the vectors we can use:

$\vec{A} = | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )$

where $| \vec{A} |$ is the magnitude of the vector, and θ is the angle over the positive x axis.

The negative x axis is displaced 180 ° over the positive x axis, so, we can take:

$\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° + 30 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° + 30 \°) \ )$

$\vec{A} = 56.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 210 \°) \ , \ sin (210 \°) \ )$

$\vec{A} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ )$

$\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 180 \° - 49 \°) \ , \ sin (180 \° - 49 \°) \ )$

$\vec{B} = 82.0 \ m \ ( \ cos( 131 \°) \ , \ sin (131 \°) \ )$

$\vec{B} = ( \ -53.797 \ m \ , \ 61.886\ m \ )$

Now, we can perform vector addition. Taking two vectors, the vector addition is performed:

$(a_x,a_y) + (b_x,b_y) = (a_x+b_x,a_y+b_y)$

So, for our vectors:

$\vec{C} = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ , \ - 28 \ m \ ) + ( \ -53.797 \ m \ , ) = ( \ -48.497 \ m \ -53.797 \ m , \ - 28 \ m \ + \ 61.886\ m \ )$

$\vec{C} = ( \ - 102.294 \ m , \ 33.886 m \ )$

To find the magnitude of this vector, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem

$|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{C_x^2 + C_y^2}$

$|\vec{C}| = \sqrt{(- 102.294 \ m)^2 + (\ 33.886 m \)^2}$

$|\vec{C}| =107.76 m$

And this is the magnitude we are looking for.

Technician A says that side post terminals need to be removed to inspect them for corrosion. Technician B says that side post te

zlopas [31]

Answer: C

Explanation: Side post terminals need to be removed to inspect them for corrosion.

Over tightening the terminal bolt can damage side post terminals.

The battery terminals and cable ends can corrode especially when the battery or car is not used for a long period of time. Corrosion limits a battery's lifespan and so should be prevented. To inspect the areas where corrosion occur on a side-post battery, you need to remove the terminals.

Also, it is true that over tightening the terminal bolt can damage the side post terminals. The covering on the battery can become twisted, and make the seals on the terminals leak.

Dinosaurs’ skeletons can be distinguished from those of other reptiles by the structure of the hips and legs.

jeyben [28]

True, they had a hole in their hip socket that allowed them to run faster than other reptiles of their size at the time. As well as most reptiles besides reptiles had legs to the side, rather than under them like dinosaurs did.

Hope this helps!
