Answer:

180^2 + 390^2 = force ^2 (Pythagoras) root of force^2 = 429.5N approx resultant force Acceleration = Force/Mass 429.5/270 = 1.5907 ms^-2 in a Southwesterly direction.

Only four forces act on an object. They all have the same magnitude. Their directions are north, south, northwest, and northeast

mina [271]

Answer:

the correct answer is A, North

Explanation:

The forces are vectors so they must be added vectorially.

The magnitude of the forces is the same, but not their direction, which is why they are different.

Analyze the situation presented

We have a force towards the North and another towards the South with the same magnitude, therefore these cancel each other out

We have a force towards the Northeast and another towards the Northwest, these can be decomposed into parts, one towards the North and another on the East-West axis, this last component is canceled, but the component towards the North is added.

In summary we see that the body accelerates towards the North

the correct answer is A

What is the speed of an object that travels 20 meters in 4 seconds?

Iteru [2.4K]

Given:-

Distance covered by the particle (s) = 20 m
Time taken (t) = 4 seconds

To Find: Speed of it.

We know,

v = s/t

where,

v = Speed,
s = Distance &
t = Time taken.

Putting the values,

v = (20 m)/(4 s)

→ v = 5 m/s (Ans.)

A stunt-rider on a motorcycle rides down a ramp and into a vertical loop-the-loop. If the diameter of the loop is 7.50 m, then t

VikaD [51]

Answer:

v = 6.06 m/s

Explanation:

In order for the rider to pass the top of the loop without falling, his weight must be equal to the centripetal force:

$Centripetal Force = Weight \\\frac{mv^2}{r} = mg\\\\\frac{v^2}{r} = g\\\\v = \sqrt{gr}$

where,

v = minimum speed of motorcycle at top of the loop = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

r = radius of the loop = diameter/2 = 7.5 m/2 = 3.75 m

Therefore, using these values in equation, we get:

$v = \sqrt{(9.8\ m/s^2)(3.75\ m)}$

v = 6.06 m/s

What is meant by the term total internal reflection? What two conditions must be met for total internal reflection to occur?

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Hello....

Explanation:

Total internal reflection, in physics, complete reflection of a ray of light within a medium such as water or glass from the surrounding surfaces back into the medium. The phenomenon occurs if the angle of incidence is greater than a certain limiting angle, called the critical angle.

The conditions required for total internal reflection (TIR) to occur are:

1)the light must be travelling from a more dense medium into a less dense medium (ie glass to air)

2)the angle of incidence must be greater than the critical angle.
