(a) -267 N
Explanation: if the refrigerator is not moving, it means that the net force acting on it is zero.
We are only interested in the motion along the horizontal direction; there are two forces acting in this direction:
- The pushing force, forward, F=+267 N
- The static frictional force, backward, 
Since the net force must be zero, we have

(b) 363.1 N
The largest pushing force that can be applied to the refrigeratore before it begins to move is equal to the magnitude of the maximum static frictional force, which is given by:

where
is the coefficient of static friction
m = 57 kg is the mass of the refrigerator
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration
Substituting,

Answer:
It would have an inductance closest to 16 L.
Explanation:
Inductance for a one solenoid can be calculated with a formula following:
L=μ*N^2*A/l
Then, in this situation we are increasing the number of turns by 4 without any length change. First solenoid with 50 turn has inductance L which is:
L= μ*50^2*A/l=2500*μ*A/l
When we increase the number of turns by four, it will increase to:
L'=μ*200^2*A/l=40000*μ*A/l=16 L
Answer:
The light wave could be reflected by the object
Answer:
<h2>103 Joules</h2>
Explanation:
In this problem we are required to find the potential energy possessed by the television
Given data
mass of television m = 15 kg
height added above the ground, h= 1-0.3 = 0.7 m
acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s^2
apply the formula for potential energy we have
P.E= m*g*h
P.E = 15*9.81*0.7 = 103 Joules
Answer : The time required is, 16.1 minutes.
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the amount of heat required to increase the temperature is:


where,
Q = amount of heat required = ?
m = mass
= density of air = 
V = volume of air
C = specific heat of air = 
= change in temperature = 
Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:



Now we have to calculate the time required.
Formula used :

where,
t = time required = ?
Q = amount of heat required = 
P = power = 1500 W
Now put all the given values in above formula, we get:


Thus, the time required is, 16.1 minutes.
