1) -7.14 N

2) +2.70 N

3) 7.63 N

Explanation:

1)

In order to find the x-component of the resultant force, we have to resolve each force along the x-axis.

The first force is 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant: this means that the angle with respect to the positive x axis is

180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}

so its x-component is

F_{1x}=(8.00)(cos (180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}))=-3.88 N

F₂ has a magnitude of 5.40 N and is directed at an angle of 52.8° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant: so, its angle with respect to the positive x-axis is

180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}

Therefore its x-component is

F_{2x}=(5.40)(cos (180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}))=-3.26 N

So, the x-component of the resultant force is

F_x=F_{1x}+F_{2x}=-3.88+(-3.26)=-7.14 N

2)

In order to find the y-component of the resultant force, we have to resolve each force along the y-axis.

The first force is 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant: as we said previously, the angle with respect to the positive x axis is

180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}

so its y-component is

F_{1y}=(8.00)(sin (180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}))=7.00 N

F₂ has a magnitude of 5.40 N and is directed at an angle of 52.8° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant: as we said previously, its angle with respect to the positive x-axis is

180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}

Therefore its y-component is

F_{2y}=(5.40)(sin (180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}))=-4.30 N

So, the y-component of the resultant force is

F_y=F_{1y}+F_{2y}=7.00+(-4.30)=2.70 N

3)

The two components of the resultant force representent the sides of a right triangle, of which the resultant force corresponds tot he hypothenuse.

Therefore, we can find the magnitude of the resultant force by using Pythagorean's theorem:

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

Where in this problem, we have:

F_x=-7.14 N is the x-component

F_y=2.70 N is the y-component

And substituting, we find:

F=\sqrt{(-7.14)^2+(2.70)^2}=7.63 N

Answer:

Explanation:

F1 = 8 N, along 61° from negative x axis in Second quadrant

f2 = 5.4 N, along 52.8° from negative x axis in third quadrant

Let R be the resultant force.

X component of resultant force,

Rx = - F1 x Cos 61° - F2 Cos 52.8°

Rx = - 8 x 0.485 - 5.4 x 0.605

Rx = - 3.88 - 3.27

Rx = - 7.15 N

Y component of resultant force,

Ry = F1 x Sin 61° - F2 Sin 52.8°

Ry = 8 x 0.875 - 5.4 x 0.8

Ry = 7 - 4.32  

Ry = 2.68 N

The magnitude of resultant force

R=\sqrt{R_{x}^{2}+R_{y}^{2}}

R=\sqrt{ 7.15^{2}+2.68^{2}}

R = 7.64 N

If the distance of a galaxy is 2,000 Mpc, how many years back into the past are we looking when we observe this galaxy
ruslelena [56]

The age of the galaxy when we look back is 13.97 billion years.

The given parameters:

  • <em>distance of the galaxy, x = 2,000 Mpc</em>

According Hubble's law the age of the universe is calculated as follows;

v = H₀x

where;

H₀ = 70 km/s/Mpc

T = \frac{x}{V} \\\\T = \frac{x}{xH_0} \\\\T = \frac{1}{H_0} \\\\T = \frac{1}{70 \ km/s/Mpc} \\\\T = \frac{1 \ sec}{70 \times 3.24 \times 10^{-20} } \\\\T = 4.41 \times 10^{17} \ sec\\\\T = \frac{4.41 \times 10^{17} \ sec\  \times \ years}{3600 \ s \ \times\  24\ h\  \times \ 365.25 \ days} \\\\T = 1.397  \times 10^{10} \ years\\\\T = 13.97 \ billion \ years

Thus, the age of the galaxy when we look back is 13.97 billion years.
