the same as the direction of the net force on it.

What is the resultant of an upward force of 400lbs and a right horizontal force of 130lb?
400 lbs 'north' plus 130 lbs 'east' = 420.595 lbs directed 18° to the right of 'north'
Direction of an object's velocity changes uniformly frome east to north What is the direction of acceleration?
North-west. More specifically, as the object's velocity direction changes uniformly from east to north, the acceleration and force producing this acceleration are both constant and changing direction uniformly from north to west.
A crate is pushed east across a frictionless surface with a force of 240N and pulled to the east by a rope with a force of 120N What is the net force on the crate?
There is no force of friction, so you would simply add both Net forces together. 240+120 = 360N
What is are resultant forces?
A resultant force is the equivalent force, of two or more individual forces that act on the same object. For example, if somebody pulls with a force of 100 N due north, and somebody else pulls with a force of 100 N due east, the resultant force would be about 141 N, due north-east. Calculations are done with vectors; specifically, any vector has to be separated into components along the x-axis and the y-axis (and the z-axis, in a 3-dimensional situation), and the components are added individually.
Two forces act on the same object One force is pushing due east with a force of 6 newtons and the other is pushing due north at 8 newtons What is the resulting force?
The magnitude of the resulting force is 10 N. Because the forces are perpendicular, we can use Pythagoras' theorem:FT = SQRT ( F12 + F22 ) where:FT is the total force;F1 is the first force; andF2 is the second forceUsing this equation, we get:FT = SQRT ( 62 + 82 )FT = SQRT ( 36 + 64 )FT = SQRT ( 100 )FT = 10
What is the resultant of an upward force of 400lbs and a right horizontal force of 130lb?
400 lbs 'north' plus 130 lbs 'east' = 420.595 lbs directed 18° to the right of 'north'
What equilibrant force would balance forces of 12 lb east and 5 lb north acting at the same point?
the answer is 13lb south of west since the resultant is 13lb north of east. in getting the equilibrant force, just copy the resultant and reverse the direction. then that's it. .
How does the x component of a force change as the vector begins to point more north or south?
Assuming that you mean the Y axis is running North-South and the X axis is running East-West then as the vestor pointed more North or South the X component would become smaller, reaching 0 when the force was directed entirely North or South.
What is the net force when you combine a force of 17 N east with a force of 17 N west and a force of 5 N north?
5 N to the north.
What is the net force of 10N east and 3N west?
7 N east
Two forces act on the same object. One force is pushing due east with a force of 6 newtons and the other is pushing due north at 8 newtons. What is the resulting force?
10 newtons NE. a little more north than east
What is the next step for the allies after this invation of d day?
To advance in force to north, north-east and west. This was achieved within the month.
What peninsula is north east?
North North East is the area in between North East and North. You know how North East is between North And East? Well, North, North, Eats is between North East and North. When it's between North East and East, it's called North, East, East. Same goes for North, south east and west. Just remeber. Might come in handy.
Is there a east east north?
yes, there is. it is between North and North-East.
Is there 16 directions i n a compass?
Going clockwise, the 16 directions are... North North North East North East East North East East East South East South East South South East South South South West South West West South West West West North West North West North North West ...and back to North again.
Direction of an object's velocity changes uniformly frome east to north What is the direction of acceleration?
North-west. More specifically, as the object's velocity direction changes uniformly from east to north, the acceleration and force producing this acceleration are both constant and changing direction uniformly from north to west.
What are the directions that lie between the four main directions?
Well, let's see. Starting at North and proceeding clockwise from there,you've got your-- north by east-- north-northeast-- northeast by north-- northeast-- northeast by east-- east-northeast-- east by north-- EAST-- east by south-- east-southeast-- southeast by east-- southeast-- southeast by south-- south-southeast-- south by east-- SOUTH-- south by west-- south-southwest-- southwest by south-- southwest-- southwest by west-- west-southwest-- west by south-- WEST-- west by north-- west-northwest-- northwest by west-- northwest-- northwest by north-- north-northwest, and-- north by west
