Answer:

8 N North.

Explanation:

Given that,

One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N directed south.

We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the object.

Let North is positive and South is negative.

Net force,

F = 10 N +(-2 N)

= 8 N

So, the magnitude of net force on the object is 8 N and it is in North direction (as it is positive). Hence, the correct option is (d) "8N north".

Two parallel plates are 1 cm apart and are connected to a 500 V source. What force will be exerted on a single electron half way
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 8*10^-15 N

Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that,  F=q*E

The electric field between  the plates is given by:

E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C

the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N

What is the gravitational force between two 60.0 kg people sitting 100 m<br> apart?
Finger [1]

Answer:

2.4 × 10^(-11) N

Explanation:

F = Gm²/r²

F = 6.67×10^(-11) × 60² / 100²

= 2.4×10^(-11) N

A marble dropped in still water will create circular ripples or waves. the radius of each circular wave will increase 4 centimet
Gnom [1K]

The circumference of the circle after t seconds = 25.12 t

Given data,

The radius of each circular wave will increase by four centimeters per second (cm/s)

In 1 second of circular wave radius = 4cm

In 1*t second of circular wave radius = 4t cm

 

As a result, the radius of the circular wave after t seconds is 4t cm.

We already know that the circumference of a circle is given by = 2πr, where r is the circle's radius.

As a result, the radius of a circular wave after t seconds is = 2π * radius of a circular wave after t seconds = 2π * 4t

                                                    = 8πt

( Taking π = 3.14 )

As a result, the circumference of the circle after t seconds = 8πt

                                                                                                     = 3.14t

                                                                                                   = 25.12t

What energy makes you able to take a long hike
andre [41]

It's <em>chemical energy</em>.

It started out as energy carried in solar radiation.  It was absorbed by plants, and they stored it as chemical energy in their stems and leaves.  The plants got cut down, washed off, and delivered to the supermarket.  Your mom brought them home, camouflaged them so they wouldn't look like veggies, and put them on your plate while you weren't looking.  Eventually, some of them got into your body, got digested, and their energy got stored in your cells as glucose and fat.  When you needed some energy to do something physical or mental, you grabbed some of that energy that you had stored as chemical energy, and used it to operate your muscles and your brain.  You used the glucose (blood sugar) first, and if you ever reached the point where that was running low, you started to use the fat that you have stored around in many places.
