Can You help me understand how to calculate net force please

To start off.. add any and all the vectors acting on the same axis (x and y), making sure to pay attention to the director of the vectors. you are often able to ignore many of the forces that cancel each other out. make sure to focus on the forces that are actualy involved in how the object will move. Then you calculate the net force acting on the object in the situation
Since nothing is happening along the y-axis, you can ignore the Fg (300N)and FN (20N) forces.

FNET = Fa + Ff

= 80N + -70N

FNET = 10N

you have to make the friction a negative force
because it is pointing in the direction opposite to the applied force.

When you want to calculate the acceleration of an object, always use the net force acting on it.

you aren’t subtracting the two forces.
Instead, it’s up to you to remember that if one of the forces is pointing in one direction (like to the right), and the other force is pointing in the other direction (like to the left), you will need to make one positive and the other negative.

i don’t really know how to explain this super well. i hope this helps!!

Calcium has a charge of +2. The chart lists the charges of different ions.
dexar [7]
The possible resulting chemical formulas for an ionic compound with calcium given the respective charges of the ions are: CaO, CaMg, or CaF₂ and CaO, CaF₂, or CaCl₂. This is because when dealing with these compounds, you simply need to interchange the oxidation state of the two elements and place as the subscript of the element. For instance, when we have Ca²⁺ and F⁻, the result is CaF₂. However, when the oxidation states of the two compounds are equal, the subscript is 1. That is, for Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁻, the result is CaMg. And for Ca²⁺ and Cl⁻, the result is CaCl₂.

A flat disk, a solid sphere, and a hollow sphere each have the same mass m and radius r. The three objects are arranged so that
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:The rotational inertia of any object depends directly on the distance the mass is from the axis of a rotating object

Having more mass at the sides will increase the rotational inertia of the object that is why a Hollow sphere having same M and R as the solid one has more rotational inertia as it has more mass at the sides.

The  sphere have some mass at the center but most of its mass is closer to its radius and thus have more inertia than flat Disk.

The same relation exist between a flat disk and hollow sphere. The hollow sphere have some mass at the center but most of its mass is closer to its radius and thus have more inertia.

The rotational of the objects can be calculated by these equations

FlatDisk=\frac{1}{4} MR^2\\Sphere=\frac{2}{5} MR^2\\HollowSphere=\frac{2}{3} MR^2\\

If an object does not have domains, will it be possible to make it magnetic?
LenKa [72]
Without magnetic domains a magnet would have its magnetism. Magnetic domains are clusters of iron atoms that line up in the same direction when magnetized. When not magnetized the iron atoms scatter.

Dante drew a diagram of an electric generator.
dimaraw [331]

Answer: There should be one brush on each slip ring.

Explanation:

A device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy is known as an electric generator. The magnets are kept surrounding armature and axle. The armature rotates in between the magnets. This generates electric current which is detected by the ammeter.

It is based on Faraday's law - when a conductor moves in a magnetic field, an emf is induced in the conductor. Thus, a battery is not required. There should be one brush on each slip ring because the brushes must make contact with the rotating rings to supply current to the coil.

Answer:

 Let's imagine this is the diagram for the question,

                 •    

3*440=       /  |

1320mi  ↑       |

           ↑         ↓

          /           ↓

        /             |

      • ) 89⁰     |

       \              |   "x" miles

         \            ↑

              ↓       |      

3*420=      \     |

1260 mi      \   |

                        •

From the Cosine Rule:  x² = y² + z² - 2 y z cos X⁰

x² = 1320² + 1260² - 2 * 1320 * 1260 * cos 89⁰ =  

1742400 + 1587600 - 3326400 * cos 89⁰ = 3271946315  

x ≈ 1809 mi

Hence, the planes are 1809 miles from each other 3 hours after​ takeoff?
