According to the formula
Where a is work, f is force and d is the distance that box was moved over. And from that formula, you can get that f = a/d and that is 54.83N of force
Write each force in component form:
<em>v </em>₁ : 50 N due east → (50 N) <em>i</em>
<em>v</em> ₂ : 80 N at N 45° E → (80 N) (cos(45°) <em>i</em> + sin(45°) <em>j</em> ) ≈ (56.5 N) (<em>i</em> + <em>j</em> )
The resultant force is the sum of these two vectors:
<em>r</em> = <em>v </em>₁ + <em>v</em> ₂ ≈ (106.5 N) <em>i</em> + (56.5 N) <em>j</em>
Its magnitude is
|| <em>r</em> || = √[(106.5 N)² + (56.5 N)²] ≈ 121 N
and has direction <em>θ</em> such that
tan(<em>θ</em>) = (56.5 N) / (106.5 N) → <em>θ</em> ≈ 28.0°
i.e. a direction of about E 28.0° N. (Just to clear up any confusion, I mean 28.0° north of east, or 28.0° relative to the positive <em>x</em>-axis.)
A = (v - u) / t
a = acceleration
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time
45 = (v - 300) / 10
45 × 10 = v - 300
450 + 300 = v
v = 750 m/s
Hope this helps!
