Three forces act on a moving object. One force has a magnitude of 83.7 N and is directed due north. Another has a magnitude of 5

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

$|\vec{F}_3| = 102.92 \ N$

$\theta = 57 \° 24 ' 48''$

Explanation:

For an object to move with constant velocity, the acceleration of the object must be zero:

$\vec{a} = \vec{0}$ .

As the net force equals acceleration multiplied by mass , this must mean:

$\vec{F}_{net} = m \vec{a} = m * \vec{0} = \vec{0}$ .

So, the sum of the three forces must be zero:

$\vec{F}_1 + \vec{F}_2 + \vec{F}_3 = \vec{0}$ ,

this implies:

$\vec{F}_3 = - \vec{F}_1 - \vec{F}_2$ .

To obtain this sum, its easier to work in Cartesian representation.

First we need to define an Frame of reference. Lets put the x axis unit vector $\hat{i}$ pointing east, with the y axis unit vector $\hat{j}$ pointing south, so the positive angle is south of east. For this, we got for the first force:

$\vec{F}_1 = 83.7 \ N \ (-\hat{j})$ ,

as is pointing north, and for the second force:

$\vec{F}_2 = 59.9 \ N \ (-\hat{i})$ ,

as is pointing west.

Now, our third force will be:

$\vec{F}_3 = - 83.7 \ N \ (-\hat{j}) - 59.9 \ N \ (-\hat{i})$

$\vec{F}_3 = 83.7 \ N \ \hat{j} + 59.9 \ N \ \hat{i}$

$\vec{F}_3 = (59.9 \ N , 83.7 \ N )$

But, we need the magnitude and the direction.

To find the magnitude, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

$|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2}$

$|\vec{F}_3| = \sqrt{(59.9 \ N)^2 + (83.7 \ N)^2}$

$|\vec{F}_3| = 102.92 \ N$

this is the magnitude.

To find the direction, we can use:

$\theta = arctan(\frac{F_{3_y}}{F_{3_x}})$

$\theta = arctan(\frac{83.7 \ N }{ 59.9 \ N })$

$\theta = 57 \° 24 ' 48''$

and this is the angle south of east.

Which is a diatomic molecule? A. Ar B. CO C. CO2 D. NaCl

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: B. CO

Explanation:

Diatomic molecules are those that are formed by two atoms of the same chemical element (homonuclear diatomic molecule) or different chemical element (heteronuclear diatomic molecule).

In this sense, oxygen is a homonuclear diatomic molecule because it is formed by two atoms of the same element ( $O_{2}$ ) and Carbon monoxide ( $CO$ ) is heteronuclear diatomic molecule.

Sodium Chloride $NaCl$ is not a diatomic molecule because is a product of ionization, but it can be diatomic in its gas phase with a polar covalent bond.
