Answer:
An <u>applied force</u> is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.
A <u>friction force</u> is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:
= µ • 
Answer:
Explanation:
The inclined plane
An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.
The lever
A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.
The wedge
A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.
The wheel and axle
A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.
Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)
Answer:
a)n= 3.125 x 
electrons.
b)J= 1.515 x 
A/m²
c)
=1.114 x 
m/s
d) see explanation
Explanation:
Current 'I' = 5A =>5C/s
diameter 'd'= 2.05 x 
m
radius 'r' = d/2 => 1.025 x m
no. of electrons 'n'= 8.5 x 
a) the amount of electrons pass through the light bulb each second can be determined by:
I= Q/t
Q= I x t => 5 x 1
Q= 5C
As we know that: Q= ne
where e is the charge of electron i.e 1.6 x 
C
n= Q/e => 5/ 1.6 x
n= 3.125 x electrons.
b) the current density 'J' in the wire is given by
J= I/A => I/πr²
J= 5 / (3.14 x (1.025x )²)
J= 1.515 x A/m²
c) The typical speed'' of an electron is given by:
= 
=1.515 x / 8.5 x x |-1.6 x |
=1.114 x m/s
d) According to these equations,
J= I/A
= =
If you were to use wire of twice the diameter, the current density and drift speed will change
Increase in the diameter increase the cross sectional area and decreases the current density as it has inverse relation.
Also drift velocity will decrease as it is inversely proportional to the area
The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is given by:
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges
We can see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charges. This means that when one of the charges is doubled, the magnitude of the electrostatic force will double as well, so the correct answer is
A) <span>The magnitude of the electrostatic force doubles</span>
