Consider two force vectors in the xy-horizontal plane. Suppose a force of 12.7 N pointing along the +x-axis is added to a second

force of 18.1 N directed at 30 degrees to the +x-axis , also in the horizontal plane. Find the resultant vector for this sum. magnitude direction degrees above the +x-axis in the horizontal plane

Answer:

F_1+F_2= (28.26, 9.05) N

\alpha = 17.7\º

F = 29.67 N

Explanation:

Hi!

In a (x, y) coordinate representation, the two forces are:

F_1=(12.7N, 0)\\F_2=(18.1N\cos(30\º), 18.1N \sin(30\º) )\\\cos(\º30)=0.86\\\sin(\º30)= 0.5

The sum of the two forces is:

F_1 + F_2 = ( 12.7 + 0.86*18.1, 18.1*0.5) N

F_1+F_2= (28.26, 9.05) N

The angle to x-axis is calculated using arctan:

\alpha = \arctan(\frac{F_y}{F_x}) = \arctan(\frac{9.05}{28.26} = 17.7\º

The magnitude is:

F = \sqrt {F_x^2 + F_y^2}= \sqrt{798.6 + 81.9} = 29.67 N

If the electrical field in some region or space is zero, does that imply that there is no electrical charge in that region?
mrs_skeptik [129]
No
It means the resultant electrical charges had canceled each other out so there is no field to be sensed .

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration acts for 9 s and deceleration acts for 12 - 9 = 3 s.

Total distance covered = 990 m

initial velocity u = o

Distance covered while accelerating

s₁ = 1/2 a 9² where a is the acceleration

= 40.5 a

final velocity after 9 s

v = at = 9a

while decelerating

v² = u² - 5 x s₂

0 = (9a)² - 5 s₂

s₂ = 16.2 a²

Distance covered while decelerating = 16.2 a²

s₁ + s₂ = 990

40.5 a + 16.2 a² = 990

16.2 a² + 40.5 a - 990 = 0

a = 6.5
