To pull an old stump out of the ground, you and a friend tie two ropes to the stump. You pull on it with a force of 500 N to the
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

C. less than 950 N.

Explanation:

Given that

Force in north direction F₁ = 500 N

Force in the northwest F₂ = 450 N

Lets take resultant force R

The angle between force = θ

θ = 45°

The resultant force R

R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2cos\theta}

R=\sqrt{500^2+450^2+2\times 450\times 500\times cos\theta}

R= 877.89 N

Therefore resultant force is less than 950 N.

C. less than 950 N

Note- When these two force will act in the same direction then the resultant force will be 950 N.

Seema knows the mass of a basketball. What other information is needed to find the ball’s potential energy? the volume and heigh
Wewaii [24]

 It is because the potential energy is similar to MgH.

 When it comes to MgH, it means mass, gravity and height respectively.

 By using the value of acceleration, seema will find the potential energy of a ball.
