No, only a force direct West can balance a force directed East.

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.


Under what condition a body whose velocity is directed towards east has an acceleration directed west?

If an external force is acting in the westward direction on the body that is greater than any eastward force or velocity the body has, then the body will experience an acceleration directed west even though its velocity is directed east.


A girl pushes on a table with a 5-newton force directed to the east. Her friend pushes on the same table with a 10-newton force directed south. Which of the following diagrams best depicts the action?

The diagram showing the 5-newton force pointing east and the 10-newton force pointing south, where the two forces are perpendicular to each other, would best depict the situation.


What is the resultant of an upward force of 400lbs and a right horizontal force of 130lb?

The resultant of the upward force of 400 lbs and the right horizontal force of 130 lbs is a diagonal force with its magnitude determined by using the Pythagorean theorem (√(400^2 + 130^2) ≈ 423 lbs). This diagonal force represents the combined effect of the two individual forces acting together.


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 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?

The net force in the east-west direction is 0 N as the forces cancel out. In the north direction, the net force is 5 N upwards.

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.
