Answer:

Friction:-

The friction force 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 inter molecular 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

EG:-

A coaster sliding against a table.

Gravity:-

The force of gravity is the force with which the earth, moon, or other massively large object attracts another object towards itself. By definition, this is the weight of the object. All objects upon earth experience a force of gravity that is directed "downward" towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity on earth is always equal to the weight of the object as found

EG:-

The force that causes a car to coast downhill even when you aren't stepping on the gas.

Elastic:-

Elasticity is the ability of a material to return to its original shape after being stretched or compressed. When an elastic material is stretched or compressed, it exerts elastic force. This force increases the more the material is stretched or compressed.

EG:-

An archer's stretched bow

At each corner of a square of side l there are point charges of magnitude Q, 2Q, 3Q, and 4Q.What is the magnitude and direction
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

F_T=6k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+10k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{j}=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}[3\hat{i}+5\hat{j}]

|F_T|=2\sqrt{34}k\frac{Q^2}{L}

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})=59.03\°

Explanation:

I attached an image below with the scheme of the system:

The total force on the charge 2Q is the sum of the contribution of the forces between 2Q and the other charges:

F_T=F_Q+F_{3Q}+F_{4Q}\\\\F_T=k\frac{(Q)(2Q)}{R_1}\hat{i}+k\frac{(3Q)(2Q)}{R_2}\hat{j}+k\frac{(4Q)(2Q)}{R_3}[cos\theta \hat{i}+sin\theta \hat{j}]

the distances R1, R2 and R3, for a square arrangement is:

R1 = L

R2 = L

R3 = (√2)L

θ = 45°

F_T=k\frac{2Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+k\frac{6Q^2}{L}\hat{j}+k\frac{8Q^2}{\sqrt{2}L}[cos(45\°)\hat{i}+sin(45\°)\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=k\frac{2Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+k\frac{6Q^2}{L}\hat{j}+k\frac{8Q^2}{\sqrt{2}L}[\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\hat{i}+\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\hat{j}]\\\\F_T=6k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{i}+10k\frac{Q^2}{L}\hat{j}=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}[3\hat{i}+5\hat{j}]

and the magnitude is:

|F_T|=2k\frac{Q^2}{L}\sqrt{3^2+5^2}=2\sqrt{34}k\frac{Q^2}{L}

the direction is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{5}{3})=59.03\°

What solutes do not dissolve well in water?
hammer [34]

Answer:

Many substances do not dissolve in water and that is because they are non-polar and do not interact well with water molecules. A common example is oil and water. Oil contains molecules that are non-polar, thus they do not dissolve in water.
