Answer:

The options are not shown, so i will answer in a general way.

Suppose the case where the forces act in opposite directions, then we need to subtract the forces, and we know that the magnitude of the resultant force will be:

60N - 50N = 10N

Now, suppose the case where both forces act in the exact same direction, in that case, we will add the forces to get:

60N + 50N = 110N

Then the only range of forces that we can get in this system, are the forces such:

10N ≤ F ≤ 110N

Any resultant force outside that range is not possible in this situation.

A ball is falling after rolling off a tall roof<br> The ball has what type of energy.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Linear and rotational Kinetic Energy + Gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

The ball rolls off a tall roof and starts falling.

Let us first consider the potential energy or more specifically gravitational potential energy ( $mgh$ ; $m$ = mass of the ball, $g$ = acceleration due to gravity, $h$ = height of the roof). This energy comes because someone or something had to do work to take the ball to the top of the roof against the force of gravity. The potential energy is naturally maximum at the top and minimum when the ball finally reaches the ground.

Now, the ball starts to roll and falls off the roof. It shall continue rotating because of inertia (Newton's first law). This contributes to the rotational kinetic energy ( $\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$ ; $I$ =moment of inertia of the ball & $\omega$ = angular velocity).

Finally comes the linear kinetic energy or simply, kinetic energy ( $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ ) which is caused due to the velocity $v$ of the ball.

A boat is traveling with a velocity of 18 meters/second relative to water and the river is flowing at a velocity of 2.5 meters/s

ddd [48]

Vt = Vboat - Vriver
Vt = 18 - 2.5 = 15.5 m/s

If the boat's direction is the same as the water, you sum the velocities of the river and the boat .

How fast would the International Space Station (ISS) have to travel to maintain a circular orbit a distance of 1400 km above the

professor190 [17]

Answer:

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

Explanation:

Orbital speed of satellite is given by $v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$ , where G is gravitational constant, M is mass of Earth and r is the distance to satellite from centre of Earth.

r = R + h = 6350 + 1400 = 7750 km = 7.75 x 10⁶ m

G = 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 5.98 x 10²⁴ kg

Substituting

$v=\sqrt{\frac{6.673\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{7.75\times 10^6}}=7223.86m/s=7.22km/s$

The International Space Station move at 7.22 km/s.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Point a

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is given by :

P = mgh

m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.

Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.

In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.
