Answer:

a)  F = 64.30 N,  b) θ = 121.4º

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components

let's use trigonometry

Force F1

          sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁

          cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁

          F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170

          F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170

          F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N

          F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N

Force F2

          sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

          F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

          F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N

          F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N

the resultant force is

X axis

          Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

          Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95

          Fₓ = -33.53 N

Y axis

         F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}

         F_y = 17.36 + 37.5

         F_y = 54.86 N

a) the magnitude of the resultant vector

let's use Pythagoras' theorem

         F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²

         F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²

         F = 64.30 N

b) the direction of the resultant

let's use trigonometry

        tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ

        θ'= tan^{-1}  \frac{F_y}{F_x}

        θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)

        θ’= 58.6º

this angle is in the second quadrant

The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is

        θ = 180 -θ'

        θ = 180- 58.6

        θ = 121.4º

A ball rolls off a desk at a speed of 3 m/s and lands .40 seconds later. How far from the base of the desk does the ball land?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Is the velocity constant? Is there any friction?

3 meters per second

then after 40 seconds it must 3*40 = 120 meters

120 meters or 0.12 km if you will

What is the acceleration of a 7 kg mass if the force of 70 N is used to move it toward the Earth?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<h2>10 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

m is the mass

f is the force

From the question we have

a =  \frac{70}{7}  = 10 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Propose an experiment that could be used to demonstrate that friction is a contact force?
vesna_86 [32]
Maybe push or pull an object with a large amount of mass? you are force a (pushing through object) aka making contact. i hope i helped not good with physics :)
