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?"
Physics

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

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

40 km/h

Explanation:

First...

Look at the formula speed is equal to the distance over time or s = d/t.

Next...

Use the formula: 240/6.0

Finally...

Solve: 40

So the answer: 40 km/h

ENERGY SAVERS RACE, BRAIN BURNER. This question is about solar cars at the Chuck Norris Institute of Technology, CNIT, in Ocala,
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

a) d = 6.0 m

Explanation:

Since car is accelerating at uniform rate then here we can say that the distance moved by the car with uniform acceleration is given as

d = \frac{(v_f + v_i)}{2} \times t

here we know that

v_f = 10 m/s

v_i = 0

t = 1.2 s

now we will have

d = \frac{(10 + 0)}{2}\times 1.2

d = 5 \times 1.2

d = 6.0 m

What is displacement
saveliy_v [14]
This is what wiki says hope it helps
A displacement is a vector whose length is the shortest distance from the initial to the final position of a point P.[1] It quantifies both the distance and direction of an imaginary motion along a straight line from the initial position to the final position of the point.

A displacement may be also described as a 'relative position': the final position of a point (Sf) relative to its initial position (Si), and a displacement vector can be mathematically defined as the difference between the final and initial position vectors:
