The frictional force is 39.4 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Newton's 2nd law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on the block is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. So we can write

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

Here we know that the box is moving with constant velocity, so its acceleration is zero:

a=0

This means that the net force is also zero:

\sum F=0

The net force on the block is given by the applied force, forward, and the frictional force, backward:

\sum F = F_a-F_f=0

where

F_a=39.4 N is the applied force

F_f is the frictional force

Therefore, solving for F_f,

F_f=F_a=39.4 N

vector ????⃗ has a magnitude of 17.9 and its direction is 80∘ counter‑clockwise from the x- axis. what are the x- and y- compone
Reika [66]

We have vector (17.9*cos80^{0},17.9*sin80^{0})

Therefore,

x component = 17.9 * cos80 degree = 3.108

y component = 17.9 * sin80 degrees = 17.628

<h3>What is a vector?</h3>

An object with both magnitude and direction is referred to be a vector. A vector can be visualized geometrically as a directed line segment, with an arrow pointing in the direction and a length equal to the magnitude of the vector. The vector points in a direction from its tail to its head.

If the magnitude and direction of two vectors match, they are the same vector. This shows that if we move a vector to a different location without rotating it, the final vector will be the same as the initial vector. The vectors that denote force and velocity are two examples. The direction of force and velocity are both fixed. The size of the vector would represent the force's strength or the velocity's corresponding speed.

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

When a rockets thrusters push on the ground the ground pushes back on the rocket with equal force in the opposite direction. Hence the rocket takes off.

Newtons third law of motion states, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
