Answer:

a) 8.80 N

b) 4.78 N

Explanation:

The weight of the book is

W = mg = 2.03\times9.81 = 19.9143 \text{ N}

By Newton's third law, the reaction from the table, R, is equal to its weight.

R = 19.9143 N

From the law of solid friction,

F = \mu R

F is the maximum frictional force and \mu is the coefficient of friction.

a) The force needed to begin moving the book is that needed to overcome static friction

F = 0.442\times19.9143 = 8.80\text{ N}

b) The force needed to move the book at constant speed once it begins moving is that needed to overcome kinetic friction

F = 0.240\times19.9143 = 4.78\text{ N}

What is due to acids formed when atmospheric and volcanic gases mix with water
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Acid rain results when sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX) are emitted into the atmosphere and transported by wind and air currents. The SO2 and NOX react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form sulfuric and nitric acids. These then mix with water and other materials before falling to the ground.

Suppose that two point charges, each with a charge of +1.00 C, are separated by a distance of 1.0 m. If the distance between the
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Given:

The magnitude of each charge is q1 = q2 = 1 C

The distance between them is r = 1 m

To find the force when distance is doubled.

Explanation:

The new distance is

\begin{gathered} r^{\prime}=\text{ 2r} \\ =2\times1 \\ =2\text{ }m \end{gathered}

The force can be calculated by the formula

F=k\frac{q1q2}{(r^{\prime})^2}

Here, k is the constant whose value is

k=9\times10^9\text{ N m}^2\text{ /C}^2

On substituting the values, the force will be

\begin{gathered} F=9\times10^9\times\frac{1\times1}{(2)^2} \\ =2.25\times10^9\text{ N} \end{gathered}

As a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit. the current flowing through a resistor isa) increasingb) decreasingc) constant
Montano1993 [528]
<h2>Answer: decreasing</h2>

An RC circuit is an electrical circuit composed of resistors and capacitors, where the charging time T of the circuit is proportional to the magnitude of the electrical resistance R and the capacity C of the capacitor.  

As shown below:

T=R.C

In this context, the electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electrons when moving through a conductor.

Therefore:

<h2>When a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit, the current flowing through a resistor <u>decreases</u>.</h2>

And the correct option is b.
