What is the x component Fx of the resultant force? Express your answer in newtons.

Transcribed Image Text:Two forces, F1 and F2, act at a point, as shown in the
picture. (Figure 1) F1 has a magnitude of 9.60 N and is
directed at an angle of a = 58.0 ° above the negative x
axis in the second quadrant. F2 has a magnitude
of 7.00 N and is directed at an angle of B = 53.7 ° below
the negative x axis in the third quadrant.

- can someone answer part E pleasearrow_forwardA particle, which remains at rest, is acted on by three forces, P, Q and R, and no others, as shown in the diagram attached. The force P acts horizontally to the left, the force Q acts vertically upwards and the force R acts downwards and to the right at an angle of 30◦ to the horizontal. The magnitude of P is 52 N. Let the magnitudes of Q and R in newtons be Q and R respectively. Take the Cartesian unit vectors i and j to be in the opposite direction to P and in the same direction as Q, respectively. a) Find expressions for the component forms of the three forces P, Q and R. b) Hence or otherwise find Q to two significant figures.arrow_forwardFour forces act on an object, given by A = 40.3 N east, B = 43.3 N north, C = 74.7 N west, D = 78.7 N south. (Assume east and north are directed along the +x-axis and +y-axis,respectively.) (a) What is the magnitude of the net force (in N) on the object? (b) What is the direction of the force?

- A bullet is accelerated down the barrel of a gun by hot gases produced in the combustion of gun powder. What is the average force (in N) exerted on a 0.0500 kg bullet to accelerate it to a speed of 500 m/s in a time of 1.90 ms (milliseconds)? (Enter the magnitude.) Narrow_forwardMany physical properties, such as force and mass, cannot be measured directly. Rather, some other physical property is measured and the desired physical property is computed from the results. For example, a bathroom scale does not actually measure mass or "weight," but rather the compression distance of a spring. The numerical values on the scale are calibrated from the compression distance using basic physics principles such as Newton's second law. Coefficients of friction cannot be measured directly. In this problem, we are going to learn how we can indirectly measure the coefficient of kinetic friction between two surfaces by directly measuring the expansion of a spring. Consider a 5.45 kg5.45 kg block that is dragged by a spring on a (relatively) frictionless horizontal surface at constant velocity. Suppose the block reaches a rough patch and the spring stretches by 5.25 cm5.25 cm. Compute the coefficient of kinetic friction ?μ between the block and the rough patch if the spring…arrow_forwardTwo forces are exerted on an object: a force A with an x-component of 9.00[N] and a y-component of -2.40[N], and a force B with an x-component of -13.30[N] and a y-component of 23.60[N]. Assuming these are the only two forces on the object, what is the magnitude of the net force on the object? Express your answer in N.arrow_forward
- Two objects (m1=11.0 kg and m2=3.00 kg) are separated by 40.0 cm. A third object (m3=1.00 kg) is placed at a location along the line connecting them such that the net force acting on it is zero. By considering the force vectors, this location must be between the two original objects. We will define x as the distance between m1 and m3 and y as the distance between m2 and m3. 1) Find the distance between 11.0-kg object and 1.00-kg object along the line AB where a small, 1.00-kg object could rest such that the net gravitational force on it due to the two objects shown is exactly zero.

After the light turns green, the driver puts the pedal to the floor. The engine provides a monstrous 1.647E+4 N of forward force on the Suburban. The vehicle passes by the Allen Theatre at 11.3 m/s. Air resistance and friction contribute a 2.544E+3 N force that opposes the motion. Find out how far (in m) the suburban travels in the 3.80 s after it passes the Allen Theatre.arrow_forward
