(a) The net force on the shopping cart is zero.
(b) The the force of friction on the shopping cart is 25 N.
(c) When same force is applied to the shopping cart on a wet surface, it will move faster.
<h3>Net force on the shopping cart</h3>
The net force on the shopping cart is calculated as follows;
F(net) = F - Ff
where;
- F is the applied force
- Ff is the frictional force
ma = F - Ff
where;
- a is acceleration of the cart
- m is mass of the cart
at a constant velocity, a = 0
0 = F - Ff
F(net) = 0
F = Ff = 25 N
Net force is zero, and frictional force is equal to applied force.
<h3>On wet surface</h3>
Coefficient of kinetic friction of solid surface is greater than that of wet surface.
Since frictional force limit motion, when the frictional force is smaller, the object tends to move faster.
Thus, the cart will move faster on a wet surface due to decrease in friction.

Answer:
A drop in voltage occurs
Explanation:
When electric current flows through a conduct, there are three basic electrical effects that occur to the conductor;
1. A magnetic field is set up around the conductor,
A magnetic field is formed around a conductor when current flows through it which makes it acts like a magnet. Application is used in electric bells.
2. Heat is generated, and
The heating effect of current is due to the conversion of some of the electrical energy that passes through the conductor, into heat energy. Application of heat effect include electric iron, microwave oven, electric bulb, hair straightener etc.
H = I²Rt
3. A drop in voltage occurs
Voltage drop is as a result of current passing through the impedance offers by the conductor or circuit elements. When current passes through a conductor, the resistance offers opposition to the flow of the electric current according to Ohm's law.
Answer:
As the car travels up the coaster it is gaining potential energy.
Explanation:
Because It has the greatest in amount of potential energy at the top of the coaster. when the car travels down the roller coaster it obtains speed and kinetic energy.
In what may be one of the most remarkable coincidences in
all of physical science, the tangential component of circular
motion points along the tangent to the circle at every point.
The object on a circular path is moving in that exact direction
at the instant when it is located at that point in the circle. The
centripetal force ... pointing toward the center of the circle ...
is the force that bends the path of the object away from a straight
line, toward the next point on the circle. If the centripetal force
were to suddenly disappear, the object would continue moving
from that point in a straight line, along the tangent and away from
the circle.
Answer: 3 m.
Explanation:
Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by gravity acting on both children must be 0.
As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.
If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):
mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0
60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0
Solving for d:
d = 3 m.
