Two forces, F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec and F⃗ 2F→2F_2_vec, act at a point. F⃗ 1F→1F_1_vec has a magnitude of 9.20 NN and is directed at an a

ngle of 55.0 ∘∘ above the negative x axis in the second quadrant. F⃗ 2F→2F_2_vec has a magnitude of 7.00 NN and is directed at an angle of 53.3 ∘∘ below the negative x axis in the third quadrant. Part A What is the x component of the resultant force? Express your answer in newtons.

Answer:

-9.46 N

Explanation:

In order to get the value of the x component of the resultant force, we need to get the value of the x component of each force.

This value will be the projection of the force vector, on the x-axis.

For F₁, as it is directed at an angle of 55.0º above the negative x axis, we can find F₁ₓ just applying the definition of cosine of an angle, as follows:

cos θ = \frac{x}{r}

In this case, x = F₁ₓ, and r = F₁

θ, measured from the positive x axis counterclockwise, is as follows:

θ= 180º-55º = 125º

⇒ F₁ₓ = F₁* cosθ = 9.2 N * cos 125º = -5.28 N

We can repeat the process for F₂, as follows:

For F₂, as it is directed at an angle of 53.3º below the negative x axis, we can find F₂ₓ just applying the definition of cosine of an angle, as follows:

cos θ = \frac{x}{r}

In this case, x = F₂ₓ, and r = F₂

θ, measured from the positive x axis counterclockwise, is as follows:

θ= 180º + 53.3º = 233.3º

⇒ F₂ₓ = F₂* cosθ = 7.00 N * cos 233.3º = -4.18 N

The total component of both forces along the x axis, can be found just adding both components, as follows:

Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ = -5.28 N + -4.18 N = -9.46 N

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity of projectile be v and angle of throw be θ.

The projectile takes 5 s to touch the ground during which period it falls vertically by 100 m

considering its vertical displacement

h = - ut +1/2 g t²

100 = - vsinθ x 5 + .5 x 9.8 x 5²

5vsinθ =  222.5

vsinθ = 44.5

It covers 160 horizontally in 5 s

vcosθ x 5 = 160

v cosθ = 32

squaring and adding

v²sin²θ +v² cos²θ = 44.4² + 32²

v² = 1971.36 + 1024

v = 54.73 m /s

A blank is any disturbance that carries energy from one place to another through matter and space.
Eduardwww [97]
<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>A wave </em>

<em><u>A wave</u></em> is any form of a disturbance that carries energy from one place to another through a matter and space

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • Waves carry energy from one point, the source to another point or place. The transmission of a wave may occur through the space or through a material medium.
  • Electromagnetic waves are those waves whose transmissions occurs through the space, they do not require material medium for transmission,for example, radio waves, while mechanical waves are those that require material medium for transmission, for example sound waves.
  • The energy of wave depends on the frequency of the wave and the wavelength of that particular wave.
