Using a scale diagram, calculate the resultant force acting on a sailing boat when an easterly wind provides 2, point, 50, k, N,
EastWind [94]

Answer:

F = 3.6 kN, direction is 9.6º to the North - East

Explanation:

The force is a vector, so one method to find the solution is to work with the components of the vector as scalars and then construct the resulting vector.

Let's use trigonometry to find the component of the forces, let's use a reference frame where the x-axis coincides with the East and the y-axis coincides with the North.

Wind

X axis

          F₁ = 2.50 kN

Tide

         cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

         sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

         F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

         F₂ₓ = 1.20cos 30 = 1.039 kN

         F_{2y} = 1.20 sin 30 = 0.600 kN

the resultant force is

X axis

        Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

        Fₓ = 2.50 +1.039

        Fₓ = 3,539 kN

        F_y = F_{2y}

        F_y = 0.600

to find the vector we use the Pythagorean theorem

         F = \sqrt{F_x^2 +F_y^2}

         F = \sqrt{ 3.539^2 + 0.600^2 }

         F = 3,589 kN

the address is

         tan θ = F_y / Fₓ

         θ = tan⁻¹ \frac{F_y}{F_x}

         θ = tan⁻¹  \frac{0.6}{3.539}0.6 / 3.539

         θ = 9.6º

the resultant force to two significant figures is

         F = 3.6 kN

the direction is 9.6º to the North - East

Consider a space shuttle which has a mass of about 1.0 x 105 kg and circles the Earth at an altitude of about 200.0 km. Calculat
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1.6675×10^-16N

Explanation:

The force of gravity that the space shuttle experiences is expressed as;

g = GM/r²

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass = 1.0 x 10^5 kg

r is the altitude = 200km = 200,000m

Substitute into the formula

g = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.0×10^5/(2×10^5)²

g = 6.67×10^-6/4×10^10

g = 1.6675×10^{-6-10}

g = 1.6675×10^-16N

Hence the force of gravity experienced by the shuttle is 1.6675×10^-16N
