An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. three forces are exerted on the object. one force is 10 n directed due nort

h and another is 10 n directed due west. what is the magnitude and direction of the third force if the object is to conitnue moving to the west at a constant speed

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 not advisable to touch a canvas tent from inside when it is raining?​
Sauron [17]

Answer: When you touch wet canvas, surface tension will draw water to your finger. However, the drop left behind where you touched, like any irregular point on an overhead surface, will draw condensation from inside the tent if it is humid.

The net external force on a golf cart is 411 N north of tha cart has a total mass of 281 kg what is tha cart acceleration
Alisiya [41]

1.46m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of cart = 281kg

Net external force = 411N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the cart = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law " the net force on a car is the product of its mass and acceleration";

            Force = mass x acceleration

Since acceleration of the cart is unknown;

     Acceleration = \frac{force}{mass} = \frac{411}{281}

  Acceleration = 1.46m/s²
