Answer:

<em>The net force that acts on the sailboat has a magnitude of 217 N and is applied at an angle of 64° north of east.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Force</u>

The second Newton's law states the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

\vec F = m.\vec a

Where \vec a is the acceleration of the object. Note both the force and the acceleration are vectors. The relationship between them is the mass, a scalar.

This means the net force and the acceleration have the same direction.

The sailboat has a mass m= 350 Kg and moves at a=0.62 m/s^2. The magnitude of the net force acting on the boat is:

F=0.62 * 350=217\ N

As stated above its direction is the same as the acceleration, thus:

The net force that acts on the sailboat has a magnitude of 217 N and is applied at an angle of 64° north of east.

alexdok [17]
The electrostatic force is directly proportional to the product of the charges, by Coulomb's law.

F α Qq

If the charges are now half the initial charges: 

<span>F α (1/2)Q *(1/2)q
</span>
F α (1/4)Q<span>q

The new force when the charges are each halved is (1/4) the first initial force experienced at full charge.</span>

What is life like in a cave camp? Do you think you would like to experience this? Why or why not?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

There's no risk of animals or bad weather interfering with your campsite, either. You don't even really need a tent. A sleeping pad, sleeping bag and a mindful eye to pick up everything you brought in is all you really need to enjoy overnight caving. Do your research
