From first law of motion, law of inertia, we know that an object remains in the state of rest or motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced external force. The skateboard riding down a hill when reaches the bottom slows down due to <u>frictional force </u>acting in the opposite direction. Frictional force is a contact force which acts between two surfaces against the direction of  motion of one surface over the other. Here, frictional force acts <u>between skateboard and ground</u>. This reduces the speed of the skateboard and it eventually stops.

The wheels give off energy to the ground because of the friction until they run out, think of the wheels as a battery and the ground as a device that needs power, it just sucks out the power

"4. Two long, parallel wires each carry the same current I in the same direction (Fig. OQ 30.4) . Is the total magnetic field at
Nastasia [14]

Total magnetic field at the point P midway between the wires is Zero.

The higher wire's contribution to the magnetic field at point P is directed into the page, whereas the lower wire's contribution is directed out of the page. These two oppositely directed contributions to the magnetic field have identical magnitudes and cancel each other out since point P is equally spaced from the two wires and the currents flowing through them are of equal magnitude.

<h3></h3><h3>Define magnitude?</h3>

The term "magnitude" refers to an object's greatest size and direction. Scalar and vector quantities both use magnitude as a common factor. We are aware that scalar quantities are those that have just magnitude by definition. Those quantities with both magnitude and direction are considered vector quantities. It can also be used to describe how far an object has travelled or how much an object weighs in terms of its magnitude.

How to solve arctan[tan(7pi /4)] ...?
Svet_ta [14]
Well, 
arctan is a bijection from R into (-pi/2 , pi/2)*and 
pi is a period of tangent function: 
so 
as we have : tan(7pi/4) = tan(pi - pi/4) = - tan(pi/4) 
we finally get : 

<span>arctan(tan(7pi/4)) = artan(tan(- pi/4)) = - pi/4 
</span>

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
