A truck moves 70 m east, then moves 120 m west, andfinally
1 answer:
Answer:
40m (40m east)
Explanation:
The fist move is 70m east, and east is the positive direction so the truck initially is at +70m.
The second move is 120m to the west, since east is the positive direction, west must be the negative direction, this means the truck now is at:
The third move is 90m to the east, again, this is the positive direction, so the new position is:
The truck is at + 40m, so it ended up 40m away from its initial position and this is the resultant dispacement.

Answer:
U² = 142.86 N
U¹ = 357.14 N
Explanation:
Taking summation of the moment about point A, we get the following equilibrium equation: (taking clockwise direction as positive)
where,
W = weight of boy = 500 N
U² = reaction ay B = ?
Therefore,
<u>U² = 142.86 N</u>
Now, taking summation of forces on the plank. Taking upward direction as positive, for equilibrium position:
<u>U¹ = 357.14 N</u>
There could be more than just one answer, since kilograms can be converted to grams, to miligrams, etc.
or
Why?
Let's remember some conversion factors to work with kilograms (kg)
So, we are given the momentum:
We can rewrite the units of the momentum (equivalent) as follow:
and
Note: There could be more equivalent units for the momentum, in example, we could work with equivalent units for meters (distance) and seconds (time).
Have a nice day!
