Resultant force F= sqrt (16^2+12^2) => F=20N So F=ma => a=F/m=20/200 => a=0.1 ms-2

Total magnitude of Force is {(16)^2 + (12)^2}^1/2 = (256 + 144)^1/2=20 N Now,Force = Mass x Acceleration==>Acceleration = Force/Mass =20/200 = 0.1 m/sec^2

16N and 12N are acting in mutually perpendicular direction. So resultant force = â??(16² + 12²) = â??256+144 = â??400 = 20N mass of body = 200 kg acceleration = net force/mass = 20/200 = 0.1 m/s².

Easy, Qualitative and Tricky Mathematician

Simple take resultant force of 16N and 12N and it will become 20N Then a= F/m so 20N / 200kg ==0.1 N/kg

F=ma , net force is 16-12=4N then 4N=200kg*a , so a=.002 m/s2

What should be the fees for class XI and xii physics per class in Bhubaneswar?
According to me, the best fee will be the changed study pattern of the students from rote to conceptual and being able for themselves to choose what they actually want to do after 12th ( not necessarily engineering or MBBS). Thanks.

Sameer went on his bike from Delhi to Gurgaon at a speed of 60km/hr and came back at a speed of 40km/hr. What is his average speed for entire journey?
To find the average speed, you need to know the formula of average speed. The avg speed 0= 2 d / (t1+ t2) = 2 v1.v2/(V1 + V2). Just substitute the value.
