If we want the object to continue to move at constant speed, it means that the resultant of the forces acting on the object must be zero. So far, we have:
- force F1 with direction north, of 10 N
- force F2 with direction west, of 10 N
The third force must balance them, in order to have a net force of zero on the object.

The resultant of the two forces F1 and F2 is
F_{12} =  \sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}= \sqrt{(10 N)^2+(10 N)^2}= \sqrt{200}=14.1 N
with direction at 45^{\circ} north-west. This means that F3 must be equal and opposite to this force: so, F3 must have magnitude 14.1 N and its direction should be 45^{\circ} south-east.

Why is it generally easy to filter out particles in suspension?
sattari [20]

Answer: A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which some of the particles settle out of the mixture upon standing. The particles in a suspension are far larger than those of a solution, so gravity is able to pull them down out of the dispersion medium (water).

James (mass 95.0 kg ) and Ramon (mass 67.0 kg ) are 20.0 m apart on a frozen pond. Midway between them is a mug of their favorit
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The speed of James is 0.776 m/s

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

mass of James = 95.0 kg

mass of Ramon = 67.0 kg

We consider James and Ramon and the rope to a single system. This means that the net external forces on the system = 0

.The momentum = 0, so the sum of the momentum of each part must be 0 in total.

Step 2: Calculate the speed of James

m(james) *v(James) = m(Ramon) * v(Ramon)

with m(James) = the mass of James = 95.0 kg

with v(James) = speed of James = TO BE DETERMINED

with m(Ramon) = mass of Ramon = 67.0 kg

with v(Ramon) = speed of Ramon = 1.10 m/s

v(James) =  (m(Ramon) * v(Ramon))/ m(james)

v(James) = (67.0 kg* 1.10 m/s) / 95.0 kg

v(James) = 0.776 m/s

The speed of James is 0.776 m/s

In a young's double-slit experiment, the angle that locates the second dark fringe on either side of the central bright fringe i
dem82 [27]

Answer:

(d/λ) = 17.67

Explanation:

Equation for double-slit:

d*sinθ = m*λ

Rearrange the equation

(d/λ) = m/(sinθ)

Since it is at the second dark fringe, m = 2

Therefore:

(d/λ) = 2/(sin(6.5)

(d/λ) = 17.67

Which statement describes the speed of electromagnetic waves?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Their speed in a vacuum is a constant value.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consits of oscillations of electric field and magnetic field. The oscillations of these fields occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the waves, so they are transverse wave. Electromagnetic waves, contrary to mechanical waves, do not need a medium to propagate, so they can also travel through a vacuum. In a vacuum, their speed is constant and has always the same value, the speed of light:

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s
