Decompose each vector into the sum of two vectors: a horizontal one (parallel to the arrow that points to the right) and a vertical one (parallel the arrow that points upwards.)
Vector is horizontal and is at an angle of with the horizon.
Horizontal component of vector : to the right, with a length of .Vertical component of vector : .
Vector is at an angle of below the horizon.
Horizontal component of vector : to the right, with a length of .Vertical component of vector : downwards, with a length of.
Calculate the sum of vector and vector .
The horizontal component of vector and vector are opposite to one another. Therefore, the length of the horizontal component of would be the difference between the length of the horizontal components of vector and of vector :
.
The length of the vertical component of vector is . Therefore, the length of the vertical component of would be equal to the length of the vertical component of vector , .
Therefore, the length of the horizontal and vertical component of are approximately and , respectively. The length of vector would be approximately:
.
Answer from: Quest
gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh
where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)
gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2
height: measured in meters (m)
gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)
how do you solve gpe?
gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.
gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.

Velocity=total displacement/timefrom house to store is 500 from store to neighbor is 200 therefore total displacement=500+200=700metrestherefore,700metres/910seconds=0.8metres per second
Dinate system, and a charge q = - 2.00 nc is placed s2 10 n> c. (a) what is the change in electric potential energy when the dipole moment of a molecule changes its orientation with respect to es from parallel to perpendicular? (b) at what absolute temperature t is the average translational kinetic energy 32 kt of a molecule equal to the change in potential energy calculated in part(: abovethistemperature, thermalagitationprevents the dipoles from aligning with the electric field.) placed in a uniform electric field e with magnitude 1.6 * 6 on the positive x-axis at x = 4.00 cm. (a) if a third charge q3 = +6.00 nc is now placed at the point x = 4.00 cm, y = 3.00 cm, find the x- and y-components of the total force exerted on this charge by the other two. (b) find the magnitude and direction of figure p21.62 ll uu 21.55 . torque on a dipole. an electric dipole with dipole moment ps is in a uniform external electric field es. (a) find the orientations of the dipole for which the torque on the dipole is zero. (b) which of the orientations in part (a) is stable, and which is unstable? (hint: consider a small rotation away from the equi- librium position and see what happens.) (c) show that for the stable orientation in part (b), the dipole’s own electric field tends to oppose the external field. 21.62 ..
