Very funny. Can I do all your homework for you?
False. Energy in any form is a scalar quantity.
Answer:
T₂ = 1937.68 N
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the weight of the object:

Now, we will calculate the resultant tension in the ropes. Since the ropes are perpendicular. Therefore,

where,
T = Resultant Tension
T₁ = Tension in rope 1
T₂ = Tension in rope 2
According to the given condition tension in the first rope is 2.2 times the tension in the second rope:
T₁ = 2.2 T₂
Therefore

Now, the weight of the object must be equal to the resultant tension for equilibrium:

<u>T₂ = 1937.68 N</u>
The work that Sam should do in order to stop is the boat is the same as that of the kinetic energy of the object in order to counter its motion. Kinetic energy is calculated through the equation,
KE = 0.5mv²
where KE is kinetic energy, m is mass, and v is the velocity.
Substituting,
KE = 0.5(1200kg)(1.2 m/s)²
<em>KE = 864 J</em>
south = -(north)
Displacement = (4 km north) + (2 km south) + (5 km north) + (5 km south)
Displacement = (4 km north) - (2 km north) + (5 km north) - (5 km north)
Displacement = (4 - 2 + 5 - 5) km north
<u>Displacement = 2 km north </u>
