Explanation:

Antoine lavoisier is most famous for his role in discovering of oxygen. He recognized and name two important element oxygen(1778) and hydrogen(1779).

In a chemical reaction, Lavoisier observed the mass is retained. A chemical reaction's total mass of the products will always be the same as the total mass of the reactant materials used in the reaction. His results led to one of the basic laws of chemical behavior: the law of material preservation, which states that matter is preserved in a chemical reaction.

Two forces, F₁ and F₂, act at a point. F₁ has a magnitude of 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x ax

1) -7.14 N

2) +2.70 N

3) 7.63 N

Explanation:

In order to find the x-component of the resultant force, we have to resolve each force along the x-axis.

The first force is 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant: this means that the angle with respect to the positive x axis is

$180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}$

so its x-component is

$F_{1x}=(8.00)(cos (180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}))=-3.88 N$

F₂ has a magnitude of 5.40 N and is directed at an angle of 52.8° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant: so, its angle with respect to the positive x-axis is

$180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}$

Therefore its x-component is

$F_{2x}=(5.40)(cos (180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}))=-3.26 N$

So, the x-component of the resultant force is

$F_x=F_{1x}+F_{2x}=-3.88+(-3.26)=-7.14 N$

In order to find the y-component of the resultant force, we have to resolve each force along the y-axis.

The first force is 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant: as we said previously, the angle with respect to the positive x axis is

$180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}$

so its y-component is

$F_{1y}=(8.00)(sin (180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}))=7.00 N$

F₂ has a magnitude of 5.40 N and is directed at an angle of 52.8° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant: as we said previously, its angle with respect to the positive x-axis is

$180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}$

Therefore its y-component is

$F_{2y}=(5.40)(sin (180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}))=-4.30 N$

So, the y-component of the resultant force is

$F_y=F_{1y}+F_{2y}=7.00+(-4.30)=2.70 N$

The two components of the resultant force representent the sides of a right triangle, of which the resultant force corresponds tot he hypothenuse.

Therefore, we can find the magnitude of the resultant force by using Pythagorean's theorem:

$F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}$

Where in this problem, we have:

$F_x=-7.14 N$ is the x-component

$F_y=2.70 N$ is the y-component

And substituting, we find:

$F=\sqrt{(-7.14)^2+(2.70)^2}=7.63 N$

When an unbalanced force acts on an object,

Gwar [14]

When balanced forces follow up on an object, the object won't move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.
