Which of the following statements is true about forces. Only one statement will be true.a) The SI unit of force is the kilogram (kg).b) A net force will cause an object to accelerate.c) Gravity is a force, but friction is not a force.d) Objects must be touching to create a force on each other.
Two force vectors are added together. The vectors are as follows.
Vector A is a force of 52 Newton’s at an angle of 62 degrees. This angle is measured up from the horizontal toward the right
Vector B is a force of 120 Newton’s at an angle of 58 degrees. This angle is measured up from the horizontal toward the left.
A. What is the magnitude of the net force? (In Newton’s)?
B.Find the direction (angle) of the net force as measured up from the horizontal?

- Which of the following statements are true of the quantity mass? List all that apply. The mass of an object is dependent upon the value of the acceleration of gravity. The standard metric unit of mass is the kilogram. Mass depends on how much stuff is present in an object. The mass of an object is variable and dependent upon its location. An object would have more mass on Mount Everest than the same object in the middle of Lake Michigan. People in Weight Watcher's are really concerned about their mass (they're mass watchers). The mass of an object can be measured in pounds. If all other variables are equal, then an object with a greater mass would have a more difficult time accelerating. If all other variables are equal, then it would require less exerted force to stop a less massive object than to stop a more massive object. The mass of an object is mathematically related to the weight of the object.arrow_forwardKrystal's cat, Charlie, had an unfortunate experience this morning. Charlie climbed the curtain and was afraid to come back down. Krystal heard the meowing and came to help him down. She decided this was a good opportunity to calculate the tension force Charlie exerted on the curtains. She placed him on a scale and used his mass to calculate the tension force on the curtains. If the cat caused 37N of tension on the curtain, what is Charlie's mass?arrow_forwardIs the following statement true or false? Explain. The resultant of the weight and the force required to move an object up an inclined plane is a vector perpendicular to the plane. Choose the correct answer below. O A. The statement is false because the resultant will always be a vector that is pointing up from the object on the inclined plane, at a 90° angle to the plane itself. O B. The statement is false because the resultant will always be a vector that is pointing in the opposite direction that the object is moving along the inclined plane, at a 90° angle to the vector representing the force of gravity. OC. The statement is true because the resultant will always be a vector that is pointing down from the object on the inclined plane, at a 90° angle to the plane itself. O D. The statement is true because the resultant will always be a vector that is pointing in the same direction that the object is moving along the inclined plane, at a 90° angle to the vector representing the force…arrow_forward
