Answer:

F = 10.86 units

Explanation:

The magnitude of a vector in terms of the magnitude of its rectangular components is given by the following formula:

F = √(Fₓ² + Fy²)

where,

F = Magnitude of the Vector = ?

Fₓ = magnitude of the x-component of vector = 8.7 units

Fy = magnitude of y component of vector = - 6.5 units

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

F = √[(8.7 units)² + (- 6.5 units)²]

F = √(117.94 units²)

<u>F = 10.86 units</u>

If the initial velocity of an object was -2 meters per second
Shalnov [3]
A :-) for this question , we should apply
a = v - u by t
Given - u = -2 m/s
v = -10 m/s
t = 16 sec
Solution -
a = v - u by t
a = -10 - -2 by 16
a = -12 by 16
( cut 12 and 16 because 2 x 6 = 12 and
2 x 8 = 16 )
( cut 6 and 8 because 2 x 3 = 6 and
2 x 4 = 8 )
a = 3 by 4
a = 0.75 m/s^2

.:. The acceleration is 0.75 m/s^2.
