Three forces act on a moving object. One force has a magnitude of 83.7 N and is directed due north. Another has a magnitude of 5

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

$|\vec{F}_3| = 102.92 \ N$

$\theta = 57 \° 24 ' 48''$

Explanation:

For an object to move with constant velocity, the acceleration of the object must be zero:

$\vec{a} = \vec{0}$ .

As the net force equals acceleration multiplied by mass , this must mean:

$\vec{F}_{net} = m \vec{a} = m * \vec{0} = \vec{0}$ .

So, the sum of the three forces must be zero:

$\vec{F}_1 + \vec{F}_2 + \vec{F}_3 = \vec{0}$ ,

this implies:

$\vec{F}_3 = - \vec{F}_1 - \vec{F}_2$ .

To obtain this sum, its easier to work in Cartesian representation.

First we need to define an Frame of reference. Lets put the x axis unit vector $\hat{i}$ pointing east, with the y axis unit vector $\hat{j}$ pointing south, so the positive angle is south of east. For this, we got for the first force:

$\vec{F}_1 = 83.7 \ N \ (-\hat{j})$ ,

as is pointing north, and for the second force:

$\vec{F}_2 = 59.9 \ N \ (-\hat{i})$ ,

as is pointing west.

Now, our third force will be:

$\vec{F}_3 = - 83.7 \ N \ (-\hat{j}) - 59.9 \ N \ (-\hat{i})$

$\vec{F}_3 = 83.7 \ N \ \hat{j} + 59.9 \ N \ \hat{i}$

$\vec{F}_3 = (59.9 \ N , 83.7 \ N )$

But, we need the magnitude and the direction.

To find the magnitude, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

$|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2}$

$|\vec{F}_3| = \sqrt{(59.9 \ N)^2 + (83.7 \ N)^2}$

$|\vec{F}_3| = 102.92 \ N$

this is the magnitude.

To find the direction, we can use:

$\theta = arctan(\frac{F_{3_y}}{F_{3_x}})$

$\theta = arctan(\frac{83.7 \ N }{ 59.9 \ N })$

$\theta = 57 \° 24 ' 48''$

and this is the angle south of east.

What are not some emotional reactions to stress?

ahrayia [7]

Any type of physical act isn’t a emotional reaction. Things like crying or yelling or getting mad at yourself is emotional. Changes in your activity level, change in eating, sleeping, sense of humor. Increased uses in tobacco or drugs, when you’re becoming accident prone, when you’re not able to relax, when your heart rate increases, headaches, startled easily, when you’re tired all the time and sleep doesn’t help (fatigue). For women your period might change. When you get lower back pain, upset stomach, flare ups that are associated with allergies asthma or arthritis and if you get sick easier. If you lose more hair than normal for your body. If you’re blood pressure is up. Things like this is physical. You might find people will isolate themselves or blame themselves. They may have a difficulty concentrating. You can look up so many ways that stress can affect a person physically

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

C)T

Explanation:

The period of a mass-spring system is:

$T=2\pi\sqrt\frac{m}{k}$

As can be seen, the period of this simple harmonic motion, does not depend at all on the gravitational acceleration (g), neither the mass nor the spring constant depends on this value.
