Only four forces act on an object. They all have the same magnitude. Their directions are north, south, northwest, and northeast

. In which direction does the object accelerate? (A) north (B) south (C) northwest (D) northeast (E) The object does not accelerate because the four forces cancel.

Answer:

the correct answer is A,   North

Explanation:

The forces are vectors so they must be added vectorially.

The magnitude of the forces is the same, but not their direction, which is why they are different.

Analyze the situation presented

We have a force towards the North and another towards the South with the same magnitude, therefore these cancel each other out

We have a force towards the Northeast and another towards the Northwest, these can be decomposed into parts, one towards the North and another on the East-West axis, this last component is canceled, but the component towards the North is added.

In summary we see that the body accelerates towards the North

the correct answer is A

A piece of rope is pulled by two people in a tug-of-war. each exerts a 400-n force. what is the tension in the rope?
Leokris [45]
Newtons 3.law: Action = Reaction

If a body exerts a force on a rope of 400 N the rope exerts a force on the body of 400N also. So the tension in the rope is 400N. See pictures below.

Chromatic aberration occurs when:___.
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

b. a lens does not focus all colors of light to the same place.

Explanation:

Chromatic aberration is a defect of a lens. In this defect, the lens is unable to focus the different wavelengths of the light on a single focal point. It is also known as chromatic distortion and color fringing. It is caused by the dispersion of light while passing through a lens. As a result, the image might become blurred and different colors are observed around its edges. It can be corrected by the use of a combination of converging and diverging lenses.

Hence, the correct option will be:

<u>b. a lens does not focus all colors of light to the same place.</u>
