While two forces act on it, a particle is to move at the constant velocity = (3.99 m/s) - (-3.19 m/s). One of the forces is 1 = (1.32 N) + (-5.76 N). What is the other force?
To find the other force acting on the particle, we need to use Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.
In this case, the particle is moving at a constant velocity, which means its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the net force acting on the particle must also be zero.
To determine the other force, we can add the given force and solve for the unknown force:
1 = (1.32 N) + (-5.76 N) + unknown force
Adding the forces on the left side of the equation:
1 = -4.44 N + unknown force
To isolate the unknown force, we can move the known forces to the other side of the equation:
unknown force = 1 - (-4.44 N)
Simplifying the equation:
unknown force = 1 + 4.44 N
Therefore, the other force acting on the particle is approximately 5.44 N.
