Refer to the diagram shown below.

W₁ = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N
W₂ = (1 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 9.8 N

The normal reaction on the 4-kg mass is
N = (39.2 N)*cos(25°) = 35.5273 N
The force acting down the inclined plane due to the weight is
F = (39.2 N)*sin(25°) = 16.5666 N

The net force that accelerates the 4-kg mass at a m/²s down the plane is
F - W₂ = (4 kg)*(a m/s²)
4a = 16.5666 - 9.8
a = 1.6917 m/s²

Answer: 1.69 m/s²  (nearest hundredth)

After an incandescent lamp is turned on, the temperature of its filament rapidly increases from room temperature to its operatin
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: (1) The resistance increases and the current decreases.

Explanation:  

When the temperature of the filament increases, the vibrational energy of the constituent atoms increases which leads to increase in inter-atomic collision. Thus, the resistance would increase. The increases in resistance would obstruct the flow of charges more leading to decrease in the value of the current.

Hence, when the temperature of the filament increase, the resistance increases and current decreases.

Sunlight reflects from a concave piece of broken glass, converging to a point 34 cm from the glass. what is the radius of curvat
wolverine [178]
The rays of light coming from the Sun are parallel to each other, so when they are reflected by the concave piece of glass (which acts as a concave mirror) they converge into the focus of the mirror, which is
f=34 cm
The radius of curvature of a concave mirror is twice its focal length, so in this case it is:
r=2f = 2 \cdot 34 cm=78 cm

A 20 N south magnetic force pushes a charged particle traveling with a velocity of 4 m/s west through a 5 T magnetic field point
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

<u>Charge</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>particle</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>coulomb</u><u>.</u>

Explanation:

Force, F:

{ \bf{F=BeV}}

F is magnetic force.

B is the magnetic flux density.

e is the charge of the particle.

V is the velocity

{ \sf{20 = (5 \times e \times 4)}} \\ { \sf{20e = 20}} \\ { \sf{e = 1 \: coulomb}}
