Given data;

Fn = 10 N

Fs = 7 N

Fe = 4 N

force in X direction (Fx) = 4 N

force in Y direction (Fy) = 10-7 = 3 N

Net force (Fnet) = Sq.root[(Fx)² + (Fy)²]

= Sq root [ 4² + 3² ]

= 25 N

Net force acting = 25 N

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

C. N/m (newtons/meter)

Explanation:

Since the equation for potential energy for a spring is PE = 1/2kx², after you know k and x, you will get an answer in Joules.

Please let me know if you want me to explain further!

Thanks!

Issac and Blaise decide to race. They both start at the same position at the same time. Issac runs at 2m/s but decides to take a

FromTheMoon [43]

Let the Blaise runs for time "t" to complete the race

so the total distance he moved is given by

$d_1 = 1* t$

Now Issac runs for time t = "t - 2*60"

because it took rest for 2 minutes

$d_2 = 2*(t - 120)$

now it is given that Blaise wins by 10 m distance

$d_1 - d_2 = 10$

$1* t - 2*(t - 120) = 10$

$t - 2t + 240 = 10$

$t = 230 s$

now the distance moved by Blaise is given by

$d_1 = 1*230 = 230 m$

4. What is the period of the microwaves in the above question?

Sidana [21]

Answer:

The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.
