Best Answer

Because the two velocities are in the opposite directions, you can directly subtract their numeric values. (1400 - 20) kph in the larger velocities direction. The answer is 1380 kph West.

Is there a velocity to the eastern direction to an object which is having a acceleration to the west?

Yes, if it is already moving East but decelerating i.e. accelerating to the west. The other condition when there is velocity to the east while accelerating to the west is when it is moving at an angle to the East-West line.

How do you find the magnitude and bearing of resultant if force of 11 lbs. east and a force of 17 lbs. west act on a point?

Take east to be the positive direction, +11 lb. Take west to be the negative direction, -17 lb. Resultant (net force) = +11 lb + (-17 lb) = -6 lb, or 6 lb west.


Can a body moving with certain velocity in the direction of east have acceleration in the direction of west?

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. .
