Answer:

The magnitude of the normal force on the box is N= m*g + W

Explanation:

According to Newton's Second law and normal force.

  • The resultant of the forces acting on the person must be equal to the product between the mass and the acceleration a of the person itself.

so with the help of Newton's second law

we can write the equation for force:

F = ma

Since,

box is sitting on floor of an elevator.

there are two forces acting on this box:

  1. W due to it's weight (downward)
  2. N due to the normal force of the floor against the body (upward).

So we can rewrite the previous equation as,

N - W = F

N - W = ma

hence,

N=m*a + W

this is the The magnitude of the normal force on the box.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Q = - 256 X 10⁻⁷ C .

Explanation:

Electric field due to a charge Q at a distance d from the center is given by the expression

E = k Q /d² Where k is a constant and it is equal to 9 x 10⁹

Put the given value in the equation

9 x 10² = \frac{9\times10^9\times Q}{(14+2)^2\times10^{-4}}

Q = \frac{9\times16^2\times10^{-2}}{9\times10^9}

Q = - 256 X 10⁻⁷ C .

It will be negative in nature as the field is directed towards the center.

A textbook is dropped from a second floor window and falls to the ground. What happens to the acceleration as the book falls to
Sav [38]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The acceleration remains constant

Explanation:

The acceleration is due to the force of gravitational attraction between the text book and the Earth

According to Newton's law of gravitation, there is an attractive force between all objects given by the following relation;

F = G×M₁×m₂/r²

Where;

G, M₁, m₂, and r are constant such that we have;

G×M₁/r² = Constant = The acceleraton due to gravity, g

F = g×m₂

So the acceleration of the textbook as it is being attracted by the force of gravity towards the ground (Earth) is remains constant.
