Describe how to find the cumulative effect of two or more forces acting on an object
What would be an ideal response?
You can find the cumulative effect of two or more forces acting on an object by simply adding the forces together. To formulate you'll need to set up a set of axes and split the forces into their x and y (and z, if applicable) components using trigonometry. SOH-CAH-TOA. The forces can then be summed.

Kepler's second law, which states that as a planet moves around its orbit it sweeps out equal areas in equal times, means that
a)planets have circular orbits b)planets period does not depend on the eccentricity of its orbit c)a planet travels faster when it is nearer to the Sun and slower when it is farther from the Sun
A proton initially moves left to right long the x axis at a speed of 2.00 × 10^4 m/s. It moves into an electric field, which points in the negative x direction, and travels a distance of 0.200 m before coming to rest. What acceleration magnitude does the proton experience?
a. 2.67 × 10^12 m/s2 c. 6.67 × 10^6 m/s2 b. 9.33 × 10^9 m/s2 d. 1.00 × 10^9 m/s2
