Answer:
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.
The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.
Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.
To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.
W = m*g
W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]
W = 12.75 [N]
Answer:
E = 3600 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Voltage, V = 115 V
Power of electric bulb, P = 60 W
We need to find the electric energy used in 1 minute. The electric energy use is given by :
Hence, the electrical energy is 3600 J.
