Answer:
magnitude=34.45 m
direction=
Explanation:
Assuming the initial point P1 of this vector is at the origin:
P1=(X1,Y1)=(0,0)
And knowing the other point is P2=(X2,Y2)=(19.5,28.4)
We can find the magnitude and direction of this vector, taking into account a vector has a initial and a final point, with an x-component and a y-component.
For the magnitude we will use the formula to calculate the distance
between two points:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4) This is the magnitude of the vector
For the direction, which is the measure of the angle the vector makes with a horizontal line, we will use the following formula:
(5)
(6)
(7)
Finding
:
(8)
(9) This is the direction of the vector

Answer:
μk = 0.26885
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
We apply Newton's second law:
∑Fx = m*a (Formula 1)
∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)
m : mass in kilograms (kg)
a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)
Data:
a= -0.9 m/s²,
g = 9.81 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity
W= 75 N : Block weight
W= m*g
m = W/g = 75/9.8= 7.65 kg : Block mass
Friction force : Ff
Ff= μk*N
μk: coefficient of kinetic friction
N : Normal force (N)
Problem development
We apply the formula (1)
∑Fy = m*ay , ay=0
N-W-25 = 0
N = 75
+25
N= 100N
∑Fx = m*ax
20-Ff= m*ax
20-μk*100
= 7.65*(-0.90 )
20+7.65*(0.90) = μk*100
μk = ( 20+7.65*(0.90)) / (100)
μk = 0.26885
