The missile s engine exerts a 260-kN force F.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

a)F=(208 i+156 j) kN

b)F+W=219 kN

Explanation:

Solution:

To determine the components of F

F=(260 kN).(\frac{4}{\sqrt{4^{2}+3^{2}}}i+\frac{3}{\sqrt{4^{2}+3^{2}}}j)

 =(208 i+156 j) kN

F=(208 i+156 j) kN

b)weight W expressed in component and add into the    

   Force F.

W=-(8800 kg).(9.81 m/s^2)j

F+W=(208 i+[156-86.3]j) kN

F+W=\sqrt{(208kN)^{2}+(-69.7kN)^{2}  }

         =219 kN

F+W=219 kN

If you have a mass of 55 kg and you are standing 3 meters away from your car, which has a mass of 1233 kg, how strong is the for
QveST [7]

Answer:

5.03×10¯⁷ N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of the person (M₁) = 55 Kg

Mass of the car (M₂) = 1234 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 3 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.673×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force (F) =?

The force between the person and his car can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.673×10¯¹¹ × 55 × 1234 / 3²

F = 6.673×10¯¹¹ × 67870/ 9

F = 5.03×10¯⁷ N

Thus, the force between the person and his car is 5.03×10¯⁷ N
