A force vector points due east and has a magnitude of 150 newtons. A second force is added to . The resultant of the two vectors
balandron [24]

Answer:

a. 240 N due east

b. 540 N due west

Explanation:

Let east be the reference direction

(a) if the resultant force has a magnitude of 390 N and points east, and the 1st force is 150N due East, then the additional force would also due east and has a magnitude of

390 - 150 = 240 N

(b) if the resultant force has a magnitude of 390 N and points west, it would be -390N is eastern reference, and the 1st force is 150N due East, then the additional force would also due east and has a magnitude of

-390 - 150 = -540 N

This force would point west

This is the speed at which molecules or atoms move dependent on temperature and state of matter.
user100 [1]
The correct answer should be kinetic molecular velocity. Which is a complex term for the speed of molecules. The faster the molecules move the more liquid the chemical will be, with the fastest being gaseous molecules. The slowest ones are things that are solid. This is easily observed on water that is slowest when ice and fastest when water vapor.

Two loudspeakers are located 3.0 m apart on the stage of an auditorium. A listener at point P is seated 19.0 m from one speaker
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The frequencies that the listener at P will hear a maximum intensity are: 85.75 Hz, 171.5 Hz, 257.25 Hz and 343 Hz.

Explanation:

Path Difference Δx is given as: nλ

where λ = \frac{v}{f}

Δx can be re-written as: n×\frac{v}{f}

where;

n = integer

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

f = frequency

Δx  = 19.0 m - 15.0 m

Δx  = 4.0 m

4.0 m = \frac{n*343}{f}

f = \frac{n*343}{4}

f = n × 85.75 Hz

Now;  n = 1, 2, 3, 4 ; the frequencies that the listener at P will hear the maximum intensity will be

when n= 1

f = 1 × 85.75 Hz

f = 85.75 Hz

when n= 2

f = 2 × 85.75 Hz

f = 171.5 Hz

when n= 3

f = 3  × 85.75 Hz

f = 257.25 Hz

when n= 4

f = 4 × 85.75 Hz

f = 343 Hz

∴ the frequencies that the listener at P will hear the maximum intensity will be : 85.75 Hz, 171.5 Hz, 257.25 Hz and 343 Hz for n =1,2,3, and 4 respectively.

Alec says the force of gravity is stronger on a piece of paper after it’s crumpled. His classmate, Jordan, disagrees. Alec “prov
navik [9.2K]
No, Alec has not.
The force due to gravity is the same on all objects, regardless of shape and size. The acceleration caused by this force is 9.81 m/s². So if there are two identical pieces of paper, both will experience an equal force of gravity.
The difference in the papers' flight paths is due to the greater air resistance that the flat paper experiences. If the same experiment were to be repeated in a vacuum chamber, both of the pieces of paper would fall at the same rate
