Three forces act on an object. a 3 n force acts due east and a 8 n force acts due north. if the net force on the object is zero,

what is the magnitude of the third force?"

The third force C is in the opposite direction of the sum of the first two forces, A+B, but the magnitude is the same as A+B  

Since A & B are at right angles we can just use Pythagoras and trig:  

A+B magnitude = sqrt(6^2 + 3^2) = 6.71  

A+B angle = arctan(6/3) deg north of east = 63.4 deg (first quadrant)

So C magnitude = 6.71 (same as A+B)  

[C angle = 63.4 deg south of west (third quadrant) = -180+63.4 deg polar = -116.6 deg

Three identical train cars, coupled together, are rolling east at speed v0. A fourth car traveling east at 2v0 catches up with t
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1v_0

Explanation:

Assuming that cars 4 and 5 have same mass so that the momentum  

P=mv where m is mass and v is velocity hence

Momentum=0+2mv+3mv=5mv

The final mass is 2m+3m=5m

From aw of conservation of momentum

5mv_0=5mv hence v=1v_o

Therefore, the speed is 1v_0

A long distance runner sees the finish line and accelerates at a rate in 1.2 m/s2 for
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: he did travel 15 meters.

Explanation:

We have the data:

Acceleration = a = 1.2 m/s^2

Time lapes = 3 seconds

Initial speed = 3.2 m/s.

Then we start writing the acceleration:

a(t) = 1.2 m/s^2

now for the velocity, we integrate over time:

v(t) = (1.2 m/s^2)*t + v0

with v0 = 3.2 m/s

v(t) = (1.2 m/s^2)*t + 3.2 m/s

For the position, we integrate again.

p(t) = (1/2)*(1.2 m/s^2)*t^2 + 3.2m/s*t + p0

Because we want to know the displacementin those 3 seconds ( p(3s) - p(0s)) we can use p0 = 0m

Then the displacement at t = 3s will be equal to p(3s).

p(3s) = (1/2)*(1.2 m/s^2)*(3s)^2 + 3.2m/s*3s = 15m
