It depends on the objects chemical composition.
We have to add two vectors.
Vector #1: 0.15 m/s north
Vector #2: 1.50 m/s east
Their sum:
Magnitude: √(0.15² + 1.50²)
Magnitude = √(0.0225+2.25)
Magnitude = √2.2725
Magnitude = <em>1.5075 m/s</em>
Direction = arctan(0.15/1.50) north of east
Direction = <em>5.71° north of east</em>
Explanation:
Yes, evidently, the process is consistent with the scientific process because in scientific process falsification and modification are two very important traits. So this new concept have modified the existing theories.
Through the modification a theory is adjusted without undermining other discovering made through the theory's prediction.
There are many other evidences that prove this fact for example Einstien's Theory of relativity also changes the existing concepts.
12N because you are just adding those two up on the same side
Mechanical advantage is the ratio of output force to input force of a machine.
hope this helps and have a great day :)
