Answer:

<em>Magnitude of frictional force = 30 N</em>

Explanation:

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

Fn=m.a

The net force is the vector addition of each individual force. If the sum of all the forces acting on an object is zero, then the acceleration is zero. That means the object moves at a constant speed or is at rest.

When an object is pushed across a horizontal rough surface, there are two forces acting in the direction of the motion: The applied force and the frictional force.

If the applied force is greater than the frictional force, then the object moves at a constant positive acceleration. If the frictional force is greater than the applied force, then the object won't move at all (if it was at rest) or will start a deaccelerated motion (braking).

Finally, if both forces are equal, the object will move at a constant speed or remains at rest. Since the box is moving at a constant speed, we can conclude the frictional force equals the applied force:

Magnitude of frictional force = 30 N

Two large parallel metal plates are 1.6 cm apart and have charges of equal magnitude but opposite signs on their facing surfaces
Flauer [41]

Answer:

787.5 V/m

Explanation:

the formula to find the electric field in the region between the plates is

E = V/d

where

V=the voltage supplied by the battery (potential)

d=distance between the plates.

E=electric field

Given:

V= 6.3 V

d= 1.6cm/2=> 0.016m/2

E= V/d=> 6.3/(0.016/2)

E= 787.5 V/m

Therefore, the electric field in the region between the plates is 787.5 V/m
