Answer:

A.  5 N to the left

<em>Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:</em>

<em>With a force of 5 newtons, Amanda pushes the stack of books to the right. At the same time, Jeremy, her little brother, pushes the stack of books to the left with a force of 10 newtons. </em>

<em>What is the direction and magnitude of the resulting force? </em>

<em>A.  5 N to the left </em>

<em>B.  5 N to the right </em>

<em>C.  10 N to the right </em>

<em>D.  10 N to the left </em>

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities.

Vector quantities are quantities that can be represented both in magnitude and direction.

Forces have both magnitude and direction. Forces can be directed positively or negatively.

For example, in the question above, if forces acting to the right are considered to be in the positive direction, forces acting to the left are considered to be acting in a negative direction.

In the addition of forces, both their magnitude and direction are taken into consideration.

In the example above, taking forces acting to the right as positive and to the left as negative, the sum of the forces is:

Resultant force, F = (5 N) + (-10N)

F = -5 N

Therefore, the net force is 5 N and is directed towards the left

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

It has been approximately 6 hours after death.

Explanation:

This is because between 2-6 hours after death, the body starts becoming stiff from top to bottom, then spreading to the limbs. Since there is only rigor in his upper body, that would mean that with normal temperature and body conditions, it would be 4 or 5 hours after death. But since he is obese and in cold temperature, there is slower progression of rigor, leading to the maximum time in the first rigor mortis phase, 6 hours.
