level questions: Scale Diagrams and Forces
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What can Scale Drawings give you? | It can give you the Resultant Force |
| If a ship goes 6N North, but gets pushed 7N Eastward by wind, what's the magnitude and direction of the Resultant Force. | So you would draw it down first. Then from the starting point, link it with the end point, to make a trinngle. Now you would do Pythagoras. [c²=a²+b²] Your a and b would be 6 and 7. Follow the formula and you would get 9.2N North East |
| What is Equilibrium? | It means the objects has a zero resultant force. |
| What is to resolve a Force? | This is simply to split a force in two that are at Right angle. |
