Two forces P and Q act on a particle. The force P has magnitude 7 N and acts due north. The resultant of P and Q is a force of magnitude 10 N acting in a direction with bearing 120°. Find the magnitude of Q and the bearing of Q.

There are 2 methods to solving this- the visual method and the kinesthetic method. Here I will use the visual one. We start by creating a vector triangle. We are going to use R = P + Q, where R is the res...

A particle is moving in the with acceleration (2t - 3) ms^-2 and initial velocity 2ms^-1. Find the distance travelled when the velocity has reached 12ms^-1.

(1.) Integrate the expression for acceleration to find an expression for velocity: Velocity v = t^2 - 3t + c        When t = 0, velocity = 2. Substituting in to find constant c, 2 = 0 + 0  + c therefore c...
