Homework Statement [/B] A 2.0 kg otter starts from rest at the top of a muddy incline 85 cm long and slides down to the bottom in 0.50 s. What net force acts on the otter along the incline? mass = 2.0 kg distance = 85 cm time = .50 s net force = ?Homework Equations Fnet=ma I also used. V=x/t...

never mind. i figured it out. you have to use Pythagorean theorem.

2 problems both with dealing with finding the magnitude of a net force. 1. A gust of wind blows an apple from a tree. As the apple falls, the gravitational force on the apple is 2.25 N downward, and the force of the wind on the apple is 1.05 N to the right. Find the magnitude and direction of...
