Three collinear forces,F1=45N west,F2=63N east and an unknown force F3 are applied to an object.The resultant force of the three

forces is 12N west.
Show by means of a tail to head method of vector addition how the magnitude of F3 could be found?​

Take east to be the positive direction. Then the resultant force from adding <em>F</em>₁ and <em>F</em>₂ is

<em>F</em>₁ + <em>F</em>₂ = (-45 N) + 63 N = 18 N

which is positive, so it's directed east.

To this we add a third force <em>F</em>₃ such that the resultant is 12 N pointing west, making it negative, so that

18 N + <em>F</em>₃ = -12 N

<em>F</em>₃ = -30 N

So <em>F</em>₃ has a magnitude of 30 N and points west.

What is the name given to the initial 150 counts in 2 minutes?
Whitepunk [10]

Divide CFU of Dilution. Divide the CFU of the dilution (the number of colonies you counted) by the result from step 4. For this example, you work out 46 ÷ 1/1000, which is the same as 46 x 1,000. The result is 46,000 CFU in the original sample.

Average velocity is different than average speed because calculating average velocity involves ?

Direction!

Velocity is a vector quantity and speed is a scalar quantity. Vector quantities includes both magnitude and direction, while scalar quantities only have magnitude. :)

A 150 kg line backer sacks the 120 kg quarterback. With what force is the quarterback sacked if the line backer has an accelerat
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The force required to move the quarterback with linebacker is <u>1215 N</u>

Explanation:

\text { Mass of linebacker } \mathrm{m}_{2}=150 \mathrm{kg}

\text { Mass of quarterback } \mathrm{m}_{2}=120 \mathrm{kg}

\text { Moved at an acceleration }(a)=4.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

Using Newton's second law, it is established that  F = Ma

Where F is net force acting on the system, a is the acceleration and M is mass of the two object \left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right)

Now consider both \mathrm{m}_{1} \text { and } \mathrm{m}_{2}as a system, so net force acting on the system is \text { Force }=\left(m_{1}+m_{2}\right) a

Substitute the given values in the above formula,

\text { Force }=(150+120) \mathrm{kg} \times 4.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

\text { Force }=270 \mathrm{kg} \times 4.5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

Force = 1215 N

<u>1215 N </u>is the force required to move the quarterback with linebacker.

How can Newton's laws be applied to protect a smartphone screen during a collision?
Sonja [21]

smartphones break due to forces acting on the material.

force causes material to deform.

material is often brittle and cracks due to a limit on hardness / electricity in screens.

newton's 2nd law states

force = DV / DT

to help phones we must slow down change in momentum to reduce the force

thus we must use some form of damping in the form of a case .

the case is typically able to deform and rubber is elastic converting the kinetic energy to heat as it deforms instead of transferring it through the screen.

therefore the change in velocity occurs over a longer time. therefore the impulse decreases
