Two horses on opposite sides of a narrow stream are pulling a barge up the stream. Each hors pulls with a force of 720N. The rop

es from the horses meet at a common point on the front of he barge. What is the resultant force exerted by the two horses if the angle between the rope is 60 degrees?

For the answer to the question above, each horse's force forms a right angle triangle with the barge and subtends an angle of 60/2 = 30°. The resultant in the direction of the barge's motion is:
Fx = Fcos(∅)
We can multiply this by 2 to find the resultant of both horses.
Fx = 2Fcos(∅)
Fx = 2 x 720cos(30)
Fx = 1247 N

If<br> an object has a volume of 2.5 mL and a mass of 10 g, what is the density of the object?
skad [1K]
We know, density = mass /volume 
Here, m = 10 g
v = 2.5 mL = 2.5 cm³

Substitute their values, 
density = 10/2.5
<span>d = 4 g/cm³
</span>
In short, Your Answer would be <span>4 g/cm³</span>

Hope this helps!

If the net force on an object is in a negative direction, what will the direction of the resulting acceleration be?
Verdich [7]
Newton's 2nd law says:          Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

I wrote Force and acceleration in bold letters because
they're both vectors ... they have size and direction.

The equation is saying that the Force and the acceleration
are both in the same direction.

This is a change in the position of a body with respect to time relative to a reference point.
dusya [7]

Answer: MOTION

Explanation:

motion is defined as the displacement of an object with respect to time relative to a stationary object (reference point). A good example of an object that can serve as a reference point includes: a tree or a building. The movement of a body at constant speed towards a particular direction at regular intervals of time can be determined and it's called uniform motion.

There are different types of motion, these includes: simple harmonic motion,

linear motion,

circular motion,

Brownian motion,

Rotatory motion
