Answer:
8 N North.
Explanation:
Given that,
One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N directed south.
We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the object.
Let North is positive and South is negative.
Net force,
F = 10 N +(-2 N)
= 8 N
So, the magnitude of net force on the object is 8 N and it is in North direction (as it is positive). Hence, the correct option is (d) "8N north".
Answer:
The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Acceleration = 4.2 m/s²
Time = 6.5 s
Suppose we need to find the gazelles top speed
The speed is equal to the product of acceleration and time.
We need to calculate the gazelles top speed
Using formula of speed

Where, v = speed
a = acceleration
t = time
Put the value into the formula


Hence, The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m
Explanation:
According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted
The force F=ke
Where k=spring constant
e= Extention produced
h=2m
Given that
e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m
m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg
But F=mg
Ignoring air resistance
assuming g=9.81m/s²
Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring
E=1/2ke²=mgh
Substituting our values to find k
First we make k subject of formula
k=2mgh/e²
k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²
K=3.921/0.01
K=392.4N/m
