Part I: Parallelogram Method Purpose: To use the parallelogram method to find the resultant of two vectors. Here are the vectors in question: Force A (magnitude 3 N direction, 60°), Force B (magnitude, 4N, direction 100°). The angles are measured with respect to the x axis. R B A Figure 1: Parallelogram Rule! Materials: graph paper, ruler, pencil, protractor Procedure: 1. Draw force A to scale on a white plain paper (e.g., 1cm represents 1N) 2. Draw vector B using the same scale as above (starting from same origin as A) 3. Complete the parallelogram and draw the diagonal 4. Measure the diagonal and determine R. 5. Measure the angle with which R makes with respect to the x axis counterclockwise.

Let us name three perpendicular directions as right, up, and toward you as you might name them when you are facing a television screen that lies in a vertical plane. Unit vectors for these directions are r, u, and t, respectively. Consider the quantity (3u2t). (i) Is the magnitude of this vector (a) 6, (b) 3, (c) 2, or (d) 0? (ii) Is the direction of this vector (a) down, (b) toward you, (c) up, (d) away from you, or (e) left?
1: If a ball moves 5 meter in 0.5 second, what is its speed? Does it have velocity? Why? 2: Is 'Gravity' a scalar or vector quantity? Why? 3: Usain Bolt is running at a speed of 10 m/s to the north and you are running at 7 m/s to the south. What is Usain Bolt’s speed with respect to you? 4: Distance between city ‘A’ and city ‘B’ is 120 miles. Jacob starts his journey from city ‘A’ at 11:00 am and arrives at ‘B’ at 1:00 pm. What is Jacob’s average velocity? Express your result in feet/sec also.
This is the formula for Newton's law of gravity. F = m1 x m2 / d^2 Can you please explain mathematically why you need to divide by the square of the distance? In other words, what does a square in the denominator do exactly? Thank you.
Answer the following concisely, in no more than three sentences. 1. In uniform circular motion we have an acceleration and the speed doesn't change. But in projectile motion the speed does change under constant acceleration, why are they both classified as uniform acceleration phenomena? 2. Explain, in terms of Newton's Laws, why a quick jerk on a string may cause it to break, whilethe same change in momentum performed over a longer time will not. 3. Explain, from a force standpoint, why you need to reduce your normal driving speed aroundcurves when it rains. 4. If an object is in equilibrium (no net forces acting on it) it has a constant velocity. Is morework required to keep it in motion? 5. Suppose you have a coin that is flat on one side, and the mass of the design on the other sideis fifty-five percent of the total mass. Is it possible to stand the coin on end?
Please help by answering this question and explain too (easy to understand way) I think it is either C or D, but I'm not sure which one is the correct one. Please clarify (explain).

Thank you for the explanation, but this didn't answer my question. I need to know the angles for qeustion 2, 3, and 4. With explanations on how to get them.
Part A A rope is wrapped around a wheel with radius 2 feet. If the radius of the wheel is increased by 1 foot to a radius of 3 feet, by how much must the rope be lengthened to fit around the wheel? Part B Consider a rope wrapped around the Earth's equator. The radius of the Earth is about 4000 miles. That is 21,120,000 feet. Suppose now that the rope is to be suspended exactly 1 foot above the equator, By how much must the rope be lengthened to accomplish this?
Suppose you first walk 9.5 m in a direction 20.0° west of north and then 17.5 m in a direction 40.0° south of west. Part A: How far are you from your starting point in meters? Part B: What is the angle, in degrees, of the compass direction of a line connecting your starting point to your final position measured south of west? Part C: Repeat part A, but for the magnitude of the displacement in meters for the second leg where you walk 17.5 m in a direction 40.0° north of east. Part D: Repeat part A, but now you first walk 9.5m in a direction 40.0° south of west and then 17.5 m in a direction 20.0° east of south
Hello, can you help me with this problem? So far, part A, B, and C is done.
I could really use help on how to express the answer in terms of v & g, thank you!
Please explain and give the final answer for this problem. I keep getting wrong answers after long and time consuming calculations.
