Three collinear forces,F1=45N west,F2=63N east and an unknown force F3 are applied to an object.The resultant force of the three
Greeley [361]

Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is

<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N

which is positive, so it's directed east.

To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that

18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N

<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N

So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.

Which statement is false?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Once you reach adulthood, you will not experience peer pressure.

Explanation:

We tend to believe that self-control comes from within, but many of our attitudes depend as much on friends and family as on ourselves. That's because at any stage of our life (even the adult stage) our friends and our family have the power to influence us, sometimes that influence is good and sometimes bad, it's up to us to reason about them.

The people around us have the power to make us fat, consume more alcohol, worry less about the environment and expose ourselves to the sun without proper protection, among many other things.

It is not simply about peer pressure, where you deliberately act in a certain way to suit the group. It is, in fact, largely an unconscious attitude. Without your awareness, your brain is constantly picking up cues from people around you to dictate your behavior. And the consequences can be serious.

A wheel starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration to reach an angular speed of 11.2 rad/s in 3.07 s. (a) f
Hitman42 [59]
(a) The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t}
where \omega_i and \omega_f are the initial and final angular speed of the wheel, and t the time.

In our problem, the initial angular speed is zero (the wheel starts from rest), so the angular acceleration is
\alpha =  \frac{(11.2 rad/s) - 0}{3.07 s} =3.65 rad/s^2

(b) The wheel is moving by uniformly rotational accelerated motion, so the angle it covered after a time t is given by
\theta (t) = \omega_i t +  \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2
where \omega_i = 0 is the initial angular speed. So, the angle covered after a time t=3.07 s is
\theta=  \frac{1}{2}  \alpha t^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(3.65 rad/s^2)(3.07 s)^2 = 17.2 rad
