Answer:

5.5 N at 50.8° north of west.

Explanation:

To find the resultant of these forces, we have to resolve each force along the x- and y-direction, then find the components of the resultant force, and then calculate the resultant force.

The three forces are:

F_1=3.0 N (east)

F_2=4.0 N (west)

F_3=5.0 N (at 60° north of west)

Taking east as positive x-direction and north as positive y-direction, the components of the forces along the 2 directions are:

F_{1x}=3.0 N\\F_{1y}=0

F_{2x}=-4.0 N\\F_{2y}=0

F_{3x}=-(5.0)(cos 60^{\circ})=-2.5 N\\F_{3y}=(5.0)(sin 60^{\circ})=4.3 N

Threfore, the components of the resultant force are:

F_x=F_{1x}+F_{2x}+F_{3x}=3.0+(-4.0)+(-2.5)=-3.5 N\\F_y=F_{1y}+F_{2y}+F_{3y}=0+0+4.3=4.3 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force is

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{(-3.5)^2+(4.3)^2}=5.5 N

And the direction is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{|F_x|})=tan^{-1}(\frac{4.3}{3.5})=50.8^{\circ}

And since the x-component is negative, it means that this angle is measured as north of west.

The various contributions involved till the chapati is made is given below.

<h3>What is food?</h3>

The substance that we intake for the body to charge up by giving nutrients is called the food.

Wheat is a staple food. We make chapati from flour obtained from the wheat grains.

The various contributions involved till the chapati is made is given below.

                 Take required amount of atta in a container

                                                     ↓

                    Add water accordingly to form a dough

                                                     ↓

                 Apply oil to make dough smooth for long time

                                                    ↓

        Take small dough, make it a ball shaped and apply dry flour

                                                    ↓

               Roll it using rolling pin on the chapati maker plate

                                                    ↓

      After making it circular or any shape you want, place it on hot tawa

                                                    ↓

                               Bake it on both the sides

                                                   ↓

                                      Chapati is ready

Thus, the flow chart is made.

Which of these IS an example of balanced forces? A. a book on a shelf B. air rushing out of a balloon C. rolling over and fallin
babunello [35]

Forces are balanced when net force on the object is zero or the sum of all force on the object is zero.

For book kept on a shelf, the weight of the book in down direction is balanced by the normal force on the book by the shelf. hence the book kept on a shelf is an example of balanced force.

In case of air rushing out of balloon , the balloon experience a net force by the air coming out of it.

rolling over and falling off the bed , the object falls under gravity force.

a car speeding up accelerates. since it accelerates , it has net force on it.

A sidereal day is the time it takes for
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

B. the stars to come back to the same positions in the sky.

Explanation:

In fact, the solar day is equivalent to more than a rotation, because when the point has turned completely, it is not, as it should, in the same position with respect to the Sun.

The reason for this is that while performing the rotation, the Earth simultaneously moved following its orbit around the Sun.

When the reference point completed its rotation, the Earth already moved almost 2,500,000 km., So that to see the Sun again it will be necessary to turn a little more.

Solar day is more than a rotation. The sidereal or sidereal day, commonly used by astronomers, is also based on the rotation of the Earth; but in this case a distant star is taken as a reference (sidereal comes from the Latin sidus which means "star").
