Answer:

a. 240 N due east

b. 540 N due west

Explanation:

Let east be the reference direction

(a) if the resultant force has a magnitude of 390 N and points east, and the 1st force is 150N due East, then the additional force would also due east and has a magnitude of

390 - 150 = 240 N

(b) if the resultant force has a magnitude of 390 N and points west, it would be -390N is eastern reference, and the 1st force is 150N due East, then the additional force would also due east and has a magnitude of

-390 - 150 = -540 N

This force would point west

The change in momentum of an object is equal to the ____________ that acts on it.
meriva

Answer : The change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse that acts on it.

Explanation :

Change in momentum : The change in momentum of an object is the product of the mass and the change in velocity of an object.

The formula of change in momentum is,

\Delta p=m\times \Delta v

Impulse : An impulse of an object is the product of the force applied on an object and the change in time. Impulse is also equivalent to the change in momentum of  an object.

J=F\times \Delta t

Proof :

J=F\times \Delta t\\\\J=(m\times a)\times \Delta t\\\\J=m\times (a\times \Delta t)\\\\J=m\times \Delta v=\Delta p

Hence, the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse that acts on it.
