Two electric force vectors act on a particle. Their x-components are 13.5 N and −7.40 N and their y-components are −12.0 N and −4.70 N, respectively. For the resultant electric force, find the following. (a) the x-component N
(b) the y-component N
(c) the magnitude of the resultant electric force N
(d) the direction of the resultant electric force, measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis

Explanation:

Given two vectors as follows

E₁ = 13.5 i -12 j

E₂ = -7.4 i - 4.7 j

Resultant E = E₁ + E₂

= 13.5 i -12 j -7.4 i - 4.7 j

E = 6.1 i - 16.7 j

a ) X component of resultant = 6.1 N

b ) y component of resultant = -16.7 N

Magnitude of resultant = √ ( 6.1² + 16.7² )

= 17.75 N

d ) If θ be the required angle

tanθ = 16.7 / 6.1 = 2.73

θ = 70° .

counterclockwise = 360 - 70 = 290°

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.

the body's situation won't change the forces are equal opposit and on the same body
