A force of 8.0 N is along x direction, another force of 6.0 N is along +y direction. If both forces are acting on a point object

located at the origin, what is their resultant force on the object?

Answer:

Resultant force, R = 10 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting along +x direction, F_x=8\ N

Force acting along +y direction, F_y=6\ N

Both the forces are acting on a point object located at the origin. Let the resultant force of the object is given by R. So,

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2+F_xF_y\ cos\theta}

Here \theta=90^{\circ}

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

R=\sqrt{8^2+6^2}

R = 10 N

So, the resultant force on the object is 10 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the linear speed of a point on the equator, due to the earth's rotation?
kvv77 [185]
The equatorial radius of the earth is
r = 6378 km = 6378 x 10³ m

The earth makes 1 revolution in 24 hours.
The angular velocity is
ω = (2π rad)/(24*3600 s) = 7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s

The tangential velocity (linear velocity) at a point on the equator is
v = rω
   = (6378 x 10³ m)*(7.2722 x 10⁻⁵ rad/s)
   = 463.8 m/s

Answer: 463.8 m/s

A 4-lb ball b is traveling around in a circle of radius r1 = 3 ft with a speed (vb)1 = 6 ft>s. if the attached cord is pulled
Leya [2.2K]
Position #1:
radius, r₁ = 3 ft
Tangential speed, v₁ = 6 ft/s

By definition, the angular speed is
ω₁ = v₁/r₁ = (3 ft/s) / (3 ft) = 1 rad/s

Position #2:
Radius, r₂ = 2 ft

By definition, the moment of inertia in positions 1 and 2 are respectively
I₁ = (4 lb)*(3 ft)² = 36 lb-ft²
I₂ = (4 lb)*(2 ft)² = 16 lb-ft²

Because momentum is conserved,
I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂
Therefore the angular velocity in position 2 is
ω₂ = (I₁/I₂)ω₁
      = (36/16)*1 = 2.25 rad/s
The tangential velocity in position 2 is
v₂ = r₂ω₂ = (2 ft)*(225 rad/s) = 4.5 ft/s

At each position, there is an outward centripetal force.
In position 1, the centripetal force is
F₁ = m*(v²/r₂) = (4)*(6²/3) = 48 lbf
In position 2, the centripetal force is
F₂ = (4)*(4.5²/2) = 40.5 lbf

The radius diminishes at a rate of 2 ft/s.
Therefore the force versus distance curve is as shown below.

The work done is the area under the curve, and it is
W = (1/2)*(48.0+40.5 ft)*(3-2 ft) = 44.25 ft-lb

Answer:  44.25 ft-lb

In a race, a runner traveled 12 meters in 4.0 seconds as she accelerated uniformly from rest. The magnitude of the acceleration
mestny [16]
<span>The runner is moving by uniformly accelerated motion, starting from rest (so, his initial velocity is zero). The law of motion of the runner is
</span>x(t) =  \frac{1}{2}  at^2<span>
where x(t) is the distance covered after time t, and a is the acceleration of the runner. By re-arranging the formula, we get
</span>a= \frac{2S}{t^2}<span>
We know the runner has covered a distance of S=12m in t=4.0 s, and if we plug these numbers into the equation, we find the acceleration of the runner: 
</span>a= \frac{2S}{t^2} = \frac{(2*12m)}{(4s)^2} =1.5 m/s^2<span>
</span>
