Three forces (4i + 7j)N, (pi +5j)N and (-8i+qj) N act on a particle of mass 5 kg to produce an acceleration of (2i - j) m s 2 . No other forces act on the particle. Find the resultant force acting on the particle in terms of p and q. THEN find p and Q

Three forces : (4i + 7j)N , (pi +5j)N , (-8i+qj) N Mass = 5 kg acceleration = (2i - j) A.Collect like terms (4+p-8)i +(7+5+q)j = (-4+p...

When you integrate, why do you need to add a +C on the end?

Integration can be used to undo differentiation. So if you had an equation that was y=5x+2 and differentiated to get dy/dx=5. When you integrate it you would only get y=5x, so the +2 is lost, to make sure...

Solve the simultaneous equations: 3x+7y=18 and x+2y=5

  • To help us to see what we need to do in this question, I would always line the equations up one above the other, and label them (1) and (2). Here we'll say that (1) is 3x + 7y =18 and (2) is x+ 2y =...
