A uniform ladder 5.0 m long rests against a frictionless, vertical wall with its lower end 3.0 m from the wall. The ladder weigh

s 160 N. The coefficient of static friction between the foot of the ladder and the ground is 0.40. A man weighing 740 N climbs slowly up the ladder.

The only vertical forces acting on the wall are the weights of the man and the ladder as well as the normal force because the wall has no friction.

The maximal frictional forces are μsN2=(0.40)(900N)=360N, and N1=w1+wm=160N+740N=900N for the vertical forces to balance. At a height of 4.0 meters above the ground, the ladder makes contact with the wall. about the point of contact with the ground, balancing torques.

N2 = 174.0N because (4.0m)2 = (1.5m)(160N) + (1.0m)(35)(740N) =684N.m. It is necessary for the frictional force to counteract this horizontal force. Setting the frictional fore and n1 to a maximum of 360N and solving for the distance x along the ladder (0.4m)(360N)=(1.50m)(160N)+x(35)(740N) yields x=2.70m

<h3>Friction</h3>

When two sliding solid surfaces, fluid layers, or material components come into contact with one another, friction acts as a force to stop them from moving in the same direction. Friction comes in several forms:

The relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact is opposed by dry friction. Between moving surfaces, there is kinetic friction, which is different from static friction. With the exception of atomic or molecule friction, asperities on the surface interact to produce dry friction.

When layers of a viscous fluid move in relation to one another, there is friction between them. This is known as fluid friction.

When a lubricant fluid separates two solid surfaces, it is called lubricated friction.

A car has a mass of 1600 kg. It is stuck in the snow and is being pulled out by a cable that applies a force of 7560 N due north
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Acceleration of the car will be a=0.1375m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given mass of the ball m = 1600 kg

Force in north direction F= 7560 N

Resistance force which opposes the movement of car F_R=7340N

So net force on the car F_{net}=F-F_R=7560-7340=220N

According to second law of motion we know that F=ma

So 220=1600\times a

a=0.1375m/sec^2

) each plate of a parallel-plate air-filled capacitor has an area of 0.0020 , and the separation of the plates is an electric fi
Dvinal [7]
I attached the full question.
We know that for a parallel-plate capacitor the surface charge density is given by the following formula:
\sigma=\varepsilon_0 \frac{V}{d}
Where V is the voltage between the plates and d is separation.
Voltage is by definition:
V=Ed
Voltage is analog to the mechanical work done by the force.
Above formula is correct only If the field is constant, and we can assume that it is since no function has been given.
The charge density would then be:
\sigma=\varepsilon_0 \frac{Ed}{d}=\varepsilon_0E\\&#10;\sigma= 8.85\cdot10^{-12}\cdot 2.1\cdot 10^6= 0.0000185\frac{c}{m^2}
Please note that elecric permittivity of air is very close to  elecric permittivity of vacum, it is common to use them <span>interchangeably</span>.
