For this case we have that by definition, the switch is a control component that opens or closes a circuit.

It is necessary to emphasize that if the switch is open then the flow of electrons from one point to another is not allowed. Thus, it is said that we are in the presence of an open circuit.

The correct option is symbol A, an open switch is shown graphically in the attached image.

Answer:

Option B

Answer: Symbol A

Explanation:

The four symbols described here represent:

- Symbol A shows two dots and a line draw from one not connected to the other. --> this is an open switch. A switch is component of a circuit that is used to open/close the circuit in order to interrupt/allow the flow of current through the circuit. In this case, the switch is open, since the line does not connect the second dot.

- Symbol B shows two dots and a line draw from one connected to the other. --> this is the symbol used to represent the switch when it is closed, so it is a closed switch.

- Symbol C shows vertical lines in the pattern long, short, long, and short with a plus and minus symbol on it. --> this symbol represents a battery, which consists of two or more cells and provides the electromotive force that pushes the electrons along the circuit.

Therefore, the correct symbol representing the open switch is

Symbol A

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a c

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

$F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N (1)$

In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

$F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N (2)$

⇒ 169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N (3)

This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47 N (4)

A spring hangs at rest from a support. If you suspend a 0.46 kg mass from the spring it elongates 0.79m.

Fudgin [204]

a. The restoring force in the spring has magnitude

F[spring] = k (0.79 m)

which counters the weight of the mass,

F[weight] = (0.46 kg) g = 4.508 N

so that by Newton's second law,

F[spring] - F[weight] = 0 ⇒ k = (4.508 N) / (0.79 m) ≈ 5.7 N/m

b. Using the same equation as before, we now have

F[weight] = (0.75 kg) g = 7.35 N

so that

(5.7 N/m) x - 7.35 N = 0 ⇒ x = (7.35 N) / (5.7 N/m) ≈ 1.3 m
