of east.

To resolve these forces we have to make use of the sines and cosines.

To resolve this force in 30 degree north of west, the answer will be

100*sin(30)

The answer will be 50N

Now to resolve the force acting 60 degree north of east

100* cos(60)

The answer will be 50N.

This also adds to the total force acting that is 50+50=100N. This is the way forces are resolved according to their specified angles.

A boy sits motionless partway down a playground slide. The force of friction balances the force of gravity. A girl hands the boy
DanielleElmas [232]

C.  

The force of friction = coefficient of friction * normal force.  

Adding the book to the boy increases the normal force and the component of the gravitational force directed down the slide.  This in turn increases the force of friction as can be seen by the relationship from the above equation.  For a stationary object, the force of static friction is always equal to the force applied (in this case, it is the component of the gravitational force directed down the slide).  That means that so long as the boy is not moving and his mass increases, the frictional force is increasing also to balance the increased downward gravitation force directed down the slide.

Why does cold water sink?
KATRIN_1 [288]
Because Any object or substance that is less dense than a fluid will float in that fluid, so hot water rises (floats) in colder water. When fluids are cooled, they contract and therefore become more dense. Any object or substance that is more dense than a fluid will sink in that fluid, so cold water sinks in warmer water

12. A boy of mass 50 kg running 5m/s jumps on to a 20kg trolley
atroni [7]

Answer:

4 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂ = (m₁ + m₂) v

(50)(5) + (20)(1.5) = (50 + 20) v

v = 4

The final velocity is 4 m/s.
