Answer: 5.10 KG

Explanation: W = 50 N

BY FORMULA

W = MG

M = W/G

M = 50 /9.8

M= 5.10 KG

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?

Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

$R=A=B$

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

$R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°$

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!

A vector points -43.0 units

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the direction of this vector we need o find the angle that has a tangent of the y-component over the x-component:

$tan^{-1}(\frac{11.1}{-43.0})=-14.5$ but since we are in Q2 we have to add 180 degrees to that angle giving us 165.5 degrees

On earth, two parts of a space probe weigh 14500 N and 4800 N. These parts are separated by a center-to-center distance of 18 m

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

$F = 1.489*10^{-7} N$

Explanation: Weight of space probes on earth is given by: $W= m*g$

W= weight of the object( in N)

m= mass of the object (in kg)

g=acceleration due to gravity(9.81 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ )

Therefore,

$m_{1} = \frac{14500}{9.81}$

$m_{1} = 1478.08 kg$

Similarly,

$m_{2} = \frac{4800}{9.81}$

$m_{2} = 489.29 kg$

Now, considering these two parts as uniform spherical objects

Also, according to Superposition principle, gravitational net force experienced by an object is sum of all individual forces on the object.

Force between these two objects is given by:

$F = \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}}{R^{2} }$

G= gravitational constant ( $6.67 * 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}$ )

$m_{1} , m_{2}$ = masses of the object

R= distance between their centres (in m)(18 m)

Substituiting all these values into the above formula

$F = 1.489*10^{-7} N$

This is the magnitude of force experienced by each part in the direction towards the other part, i.e the gravitational force is attractive in nature.
