Answer:

A force is a push or a pull. It causes an object at rest to move. It can cause an object that is moving to change speed, or the distance covered over time. It can also change which way the object is moving its direction. Lastly, it can also cause an object to stop moving completely. A force has both magnitude and direction. An object with balance forces or a net force of zero will not change position.

Which vector should be negative?

pentagon [3]

Answer:

The velocity of a falling object

Explanation:

The positive X axis is towards right and positive Y axis is towards up, so North direction is positive

A vector with less than 1 magnitude is not negative, because its magnitude may be in between 0 and 1 which is positive vector.

Any vector whose magnitude is greater than 1 is never be a negative vector.

The velocity of a falling object is towards bottom, that is towards negative Y axis. So that vector is negative.

Two particles, each of charge Q, are fixed at opposite corners of a square that lies in the plane of the page. A positive test c

amid [387]

Answer:

The magnitude of the net force is √2F.

Explanation:

Since the two particles have the same charge Q, they exert the same force on the test charge; both attractive or repulsive. So, the angle between the two forces is 90° in any case. Now, as we know the magnitude of these forces and that they form a 90° angle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the magnitude of the resultant net force:

$F_N=\sqrt{F^{2}+F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2F^{2}}\\\\F_N=\sqrt{2}F$

Then, it means that the net force acting on the test charge has a magnitude of √2F.

11. A plow pushes 100 kg of snow with 300 N of force. How much is the pile of snow<br> accelerated?

Fed [463]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is an application of Newton's second Law.

Formula

F = m * a

F = 300 N

m = 100 kg

a = ?

F = m * a

300N = 100 kg * a Divide by 100

300N/100kg = a

a = 3 m/sec^2

The displacement vector A and B when added together , give the resultant vector R so that R= A+B use the data in the drawing and

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The addition of vectors involve both magnitude and direction. In this case, we make use of a triangle to visualize the problem. The length of two sides were given while the measure of the angle between the two sides can be derived. We then assign variables for each of the given quantities.

Let:

b = length of one side = 8 m
c = length of one side = 6 m
A = angle between b and c = 90°-25° = 75°

We then use the cosine law to find the length of the unknown side. The cosine law results to the formula: a^2 = b^2 + c^2 -2*b*c*cos(A). Substituting the values, we then have: a = sqrt[(8)^2 + (6)^2 -2(8)(6)cos(75°)]. Finally, we have a = 8.6691 m.

Next, we make use of the sine law to get the angle, B, which is opposite to the side B. The sine law results to the formula: sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b and consequently, sin(75)/8.6691 = sin(B)/8. We then get B = 63.0464°. However, the direction of the resultant vector is given by the angle Θ which is Θ = 90° - 63.0464° = 26.9536°.

In summary, the resultant vector has a magnitude of 8.6691 m and it makes an angle equal to 26.9536° with the x-axis.

An American Red Cross plane needs to drop emergency supplies to victims of a hurricane in a remote part of the world. The plane

Andreas93 [3]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Assume that air resistance is ignored.

Note:
The distance, h, of a falling object with initial vertical velocity of zero at time t is
h = (1/2)gt²
where
g = 9.8 m/s²

The initial vertical velocity of the supplies is 0 m/s.
It the time taken for the supplies to reach the ground is t, then
(50 m) = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²

Hence obtain
t² = 50/4.9 = 10.2041
t = 3.1944 s

The horizontal distance traveled at a speed of 100 m/s is
d = (100 m/s)*(3.1944 s) = 319.44 m

Answer: 319.4 m (nearest tenth)
