I also agree to A. The force will always pull back a lot deals with gravitational pull

Answer from: shawn20034

The correct answer to the question is A): The truck and trailer will experience a net force of 40 newtons backward.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the force exerted by the truck F = 2750 N forward.

The force exerted by the trailer F' = 2790 N backward.

We are asked to calculate the net force experienced by the truck and trailer.

From above, we see that two forces are anti parallel i.e they are opposite to each other.

Hence, the angle between them $\theta = 180^{0}$ .

Let the magnitude of the resultant force is R.

From parallelogram law of vector addition, the magnitude of the resultant is calculated as -

$R=\ \sqrt{F^2+F'^2+2FF'cos\theta}$

= $\sqrt{F^2+F'^2+2FF'cos180}$

= $\sqrt{F^2+F'^2-2FF'}$

= $\sqrt{(F'-F)^2}$

= F' - F

= 2790 N - 2750 N

= 40 N. [ans]

The direction of resultant of two anti parallel vectors will be along the direction of bigger vector.

Hence, the net force will be 40 N backward.

Adiver named jacques observes a bubble of air rising from the bottom of a lake (where the absolute pressure is 3.50 atm) to the surface (where the pressure is 1.00 atm). the temperature at the bottom is 4.00 ∘c, and the temperature at the surface is 23.0 ∘c.what is the ratio of the volume of the bubble as it reaches the surface (vs) to its volume at the bottom (vb)? if jaques were to hold his breath the air in his lungs would be kept at a constant temperature. would it be safe for jacques to hold his breath while ascending from the bottom of the lake to the surface?
