Find the size of the resultant of two forces of 5N and 12N acting a) in opposite directions to each other,
b) at 90 degrees to each other.

Which of the following situations is impossible? a) an object has velocity directed east and acceleration directed east. b) an object has zero velocity but non-zero acceleration. c) an object has constant non-zero velocity and changing acceleration. d) an object has velocity directed east and acceleration directed west. e) an object has constant non-zero acceleration and changing velocity.

Aparticle is moving around in a circle and its position is given in polar coordinates as x = rcosθ, and y = rsinθ, where r is the radius of the circle, and θ is in radians. from these equations derive the equation for centripetal acceleration.

Tsunamis are fast-moving waves often generated by underwater earthquakes. in the deep ocean their amplitude is barely noticeable, but upon reaching shore they can rise to an astonishing height of a six-story building. one tsunami generated off the aleutian islands in alaska, had a wavelength of 897km and traveled a distance of 3280km in 4.18h. (a) what was the speed (in m/s) of the wave? find the waves (b) frequency and (c) period.
