Answer:
The length of the resultant vector is 50 inches
Explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the answer, since the addition of these two perpendicular vectors will have a magnitude (length) equal to the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle formed by the two:
The length of the resultant vector is 50 inches
Answer:
C
Explanation:
For the explained scenario in the free body force diagram definitely the two forces 1200 N and 800 N should present as they are the acting forces
So A & D rules out.
Then you must think of B & C.
You also know that the weight of the load is always acting downwards as that force is generated by gravitational field of Earth. So 800 N should be downwards not upwards. That rules out B.
So answer is C
(Free body diagram is shown in the graph)
Answer:
B.0 N
Explanation:
Based on the description of the free-body diagram, there are only two forces acting on the child sitting on the seat:
- The force of gravity, Fg=-100 N, in the downward direction
- The normal reaction of the chair on the child, Fn=100 N, in the upward direction
The two forces have same magnitude but in opposite directions, so the net force (resultant of the two forces) is zero:
