You have a positive and negative side to a magnet

If the positive and negative side touch they will connect but if negative and negative touch they would repeal

Magnetism is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other. Magnetism is caused by the motion of electric charges. Every substance is made up of tiny units called atoms. Each atom has electrons, particles that carry electric charges.

Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting.
kogti [31]

As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.

The boy sits on a chair.

We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.

The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.

At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Hence the weight of the boy w = mg  [m is the mass of the body]

we have m = 50 kg.

                             Hence w = 50 kg ×9.8 m/s^2

                                             =490 N kg m/s^2

                                              = 490 N

Here newton [N] is the unit of force.

Why does a typhoon hit a location twice?
Natalka [10]
The reason a location usually doesn't get a storm within a few weeks of another one is more because of the general odds. They're low. And they're lower in Texas than in Florida. ... There are many locations a storm can develop and track

A large uniform chain is hanging from the ceiling, supporting a block of mass 46 kg. The mass of the chain itself is 19 kg, and
docker41 [41]

Answer:

T = 451.26 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

The mass of block, m = 46 kg

Mass of the chain, m' = 19 kg

Length of the chain, l = 1.9 m

Let T is the the tension in the chain at the point where the chain is supporting the block. It is clearly equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

T=mg

T=46\ kg\times 9.81\ m/s^2

T = 451.26 N

So, the tension in the chain at the point where the chain is supporting the block is 451.26 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 200.0 g block rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. It is pressed against a horizontal spring with spring constant 4500
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of the block   m =  200.0 g  = 200 × 10⁻³ kg

the horizontal spring constant   k  =  4500.0 N/m

position of the block (distance x) = 4.00 cm  = 0.04 m

To determine the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring; we applying the  work done on the spring as it is stretched (or compressed) with the kinetic energy.

i.e \frac{1}{2} kx^2  = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

kx^2 = mv^2

4500* 0.04^2 = 200*10^{-3} *v^2

7.2 =200*10^{-3}*v^{2}

v^{2}   =\frac{7.2}{200*10^{-3}}

v   =\sqrt{\frac{7.2}{200*10^{-3}}}

v = 6 m/s

Hence,the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring is  6 m/s
