Absolutely ! If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other. Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.
(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war.
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)
This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.
Answer:
The answer is D.
Explanation:
Average speed involve just distance and time but average velocity includes displacement and time.
(Correct me if I am wrong)
Answer:
Koala, leopard, lion, cat, dog. Koala is an herbivore, leopard is a predator, lion is a predator, cat is a obligate carnivore, dogs are omnivores.
Explanation:
Answer:
The extension of a material or a spring is its increase in length when pulled. Hooke’s Law says that the extension of an elastic object is directly proportional to the force applied to it. In other words:
Explanation:
Answer:
The spring was compressed the following amount:
Explanation:
Use conservation of energy between initial and final state, considering that the surface id frictionless, and there is no loss in thermal energy due to friction. the total initial energy is the potential energy of the compressed spring (by an amount 
), and the total final energy is the addition of the kinetic energies of both masses:
