Answer:

1.) Magnitude = 5596 N

2.) Direction = 60 degrees

Explanation: You are given that the breakdown vehicle A is exerting a force of 4000 N at angle 45 degree to the vertical and breakdown vehicle B is exerting a force of 2000 N

Let us resolve the two forces into X and Y component

Sum of the forces in the X - component will be 4000 × cos 45 = 2828.43 N

Sum of the forces in the Y - component will be 2000 + ( 4000 × sin 45 )

= 2000 + 2828.43

= 4828.43 N

The resultant force R will be

R = sqrt ( X^2 + Y^2 )

Substitutes the forces at X component and Y component into the formula

R = sqrt ( 2828.43^2 + 4828.43^2 )

R = sqrt ( 31313752.53 )

R = 5595.87 N

The direction will be

Tan Ø = Y/X

Substitute Y and X into the formula

Tan Ø = 4828.43 / 2828.43

Tan Ø = 1.707106

Ø = tan^-1( 1.707106 )

Ø = 59.64 degree

Therefore, approximately, the magnitude and direction of the resultant force on the truck are 5596 N and 60 degree respectively.

Find the angle (above the horizontal) at which a projectile achieves its maximum range, if y=y0.
KatRina [158]
The answer is 45 degrees. 
According to the Kinematics of projectile motion, if the purpose is to maximize range, optimum angle of landing is always 45 degrees.If the purpose is to maximize range & projection height is zero, the optimum angle of projection (and landing) is 45 degrees.

If there is a potential difference v between the metal and the detector, what is the minimum energy emin that an electron must h
beks73 [17]
The electrical potential energy of a charge q located at a point at potential V is given by
U=qV
Therefore, if the charge must move between two points at potential V1 and V2, the difference in potential energy of the charge will be
\Delta U = q (V_2 -V_1)=q \Delta V

In our problem, the electron (charge e) must travel across a potential difference V. So the energy it will lose traveling from the metal to the detector will be equal to 
\Delta U = e V
Therefore, if we want the electron to reach the detector, the minimum energy the electron must have is exactly equal to the energy it loses moving from the metal to the detector:
E_{min} = \Delta U = eV

To what potential should you charge a 2.0 μF capacitor to store 1.0 J of energy?
Bess [88]
E = (1/2)CV²
1 = (1/2)*(2*10⁻⁶)V²
10⁶ = V²
1000 = V

You should charge it to 1000 volts to store 1.0 J of energy.

If you double the mass of an object while leaving the net force unchanged what is the result
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: If the net force acting on an object doubles, its acceleration is doubled. If the mass is doubled, then acceleration will be halved. If both the net force and the mass are doubled, the acceleration will be unchanged.
