dedylja [7]

Answer:

Magnitude of net force will be 432.758 N

Explanation:

We have given x component of acceleration $a_x=760m/sec^2$

And vertical component of acceleration $a_y=770m/sec^2$

Mass of the ball m = 0.40 kg

So net acceleration $a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}=\sqrt{760^2+770^2}=1081.896m/sec^2$

Now according to second law of motion

Force = mass × acceleration

So F = 0.40×1081.896 = 432.758 N

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the north end to the south end.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Magnetic field lines from a bar magnet form lines that are closed. The direction of magnetic field is taken to be outward from the North pole of the magnet and in to the South pole of the magnet.
A magnetic field refers to the area surrounding a magnet where a force is exerted on certain objects. These lines are spread out of the north end of the magnet.
The magnetic field lines resemble a bubble.

During a particular time interval, the displacement of an object is equal to zero. Must the distance traveled by this object als

Gnom [1K]

Answer: No, we can have a displacement equal to 0 while the distance traveled is different than zero.

Explanation:

Ok, let's write the definitions:

Displacement: The displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position.

Distance traveled: Total distance that you moved.

So, for example, if at t = 0s, you are in your house, then you go to the store, and then you return to your house, we have:

The displacement is equal to zero, because the initial position is your house and the final position is also your house, so the displacement is zero.

But the distance traveled is not zero, because you went from you traveled the distance from your house to the store two times.

So no, we can have a displacement equal to zero, but a distance traveled different than zero.
