What is the definition of balanced forces? i need help i cnt find the definition on dictionary.com

1 answer:

8 0

Any group of 2 or more forces is balanced if the sum of all of their strengths and directions adds up to zero. Here's an example that I just made up:. Take 50 ropes. Tie one end of every rope all together into one big fat knot, and then have a tug of war in 50 different directions. Get 10 football players and 40 cheerleaders to each take the end of one rope, then everybody spread out and start pulling. It's possible that if everybody stood in just the right place, they might all cancel each other out, and the big knot in the center might just hang there and not move at all ... just as if there was NO FORCE on it at all. If that happened, we would know that the group of 50 forces acting on the knot is "balanced".

a plane travels 204 km, northeast in 15.0 minutes. It also increases elevation by 1.6 km, upward in the same amount of time. Wha

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

230 m/s northeast, 1.8 m/s up

Explanation:

204 kilometres = 204000 metres

15.0 minutes = 900 seconds

Velocity = Distance / Time

= 204000 / 900

= 230 m/s northeast (to 2 sf.)

1.6km = 1600 metres

Velocity = 1600 / 900

= 1.8 m/s up (to 2 sf.)

Light of wavelength 559 nm is used to illuminate normally two glass plates 22.1 cm in length that touch at one end and are separ

umka21 [38]

Answer:

M = 222 fringes

Explanation:

given

λ = 559 n m = 559 × 10⁻⁹ m

radius = 0.026 mm = 0.026 ×10⁻³ m

length of the glass plate = 22.1 ×10⁻² m

using relation

$2t=(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda\ \ (m=0,1,2,3...)\\where\ 0\leq t\leq 2r\\m = \dfrac{2t}{\lambda}-\dfrac{1}{2}$

$m_{max} = \dfrac{2\times 2r}{\lambda}-\dfrac{1}{2}\\m_{max} = \dfrac{2\times 2\times 0.026\times 10^{-3}}{559\times 10^{-9}}-\dfrac{1}{2}$

= 221.79

= 221 (approx.)

hence no of bright fringe

M = m + 1

= 221 +1

M = 222 fringes

The direction of deflection of an electron beam in a magnetic field can be determined by which of the following?

amid [387]

Answer:

Right Hand Rule

Explanation:

When a charged particle travels in a magnetic field, it experiences a force whose magnitude is given by:

$F=qvBsin\theta$

where

q is the charge of the particle

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field strength

$\theta$ is the angle between the directions of v and B

The direction of the force can be determined by using the Right Hand Rule, as follows:

- index finger: this should be put in the direction of the velocity

- middle finger: this should be put in the direction of the magnetic field

- thumb: this will give the direction of the force -> however, for a negative charge (as the electron) the direction must be reversed, so it will be opposite.
