Questions and Answers

What is the net force in the x-direction (Fx(net))?

  • -108.7 N, left (correct)
  • 108.7 N, right
  • 281.9 N, left
  • 173.2 N, right

What is the total force in the y-direction (Fy(net))?

  • 102.6 N, downwards
  • 150 N, upwards
  • 202.6 N, upwards (correct)
  • 50 N, downwards

What is the formula used to calculate the resultant force (FR)?

  • FR² = Fx² + Fy² (correct)
  • FR = Fx/net + Fy/net
  • FR² = Fx(net) + Fy(net)
  • FR = Fx + Fy

Flashcards

Resultant Force

The sum of two or more forces acting in the same direction.

Horizontal Component (Fx)

A force acting horizontally, typically measured along the x-axis.

Vertical Component (Fy)

A force acting vertically, typically measured along the y-axis.

Force Resolution

The process of breaking a force into its horizontal and vertical components.
