A box of weight 74 N is sliding on a horizontal surface at a constant velocity due to an external force F-> of magnitude 4.8

N. A normal force (n->) and a friction force (f->) also act on the box. What is the magnitude of the friction force?
74 N


2.4 N


69 N


4.8 N


9.6 N

Answer

4.8 N

If the box is moving with a constant velocity, then we can say that the system is in equilibrium. This is because if the external force (F->) was greater than other forces the box would be accelerating. This tells us that this force (F->) is just enough to overcome friction and so it must be equal to 4.8 N.

The normal force has no effect to the horizontal velocities or forces. It is equal to -Weight. That is -74 N. The negative sign shows that the force is in opposite direction.

2. Why is natural selection a mechanism for biological change?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time.  Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.

A parallel-plate capacitor has a plate area of 0.2 m^2 and a plate separation of 0.1 mm. If the charge on each plate has a magni
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The potential difference across the plates is 226 V.

Explanation:

Given;

area of the capacitor plate, A = 0.2 m²

separation, d = 0.1 mm = 0.1 x 10⁻³ m

charge on each plate, Q = 4 x 10⁻⁶ C

Charge on the capacitor is given by;

Q = CV

Where;

C is the capacitance of the capacitor, given as;

C = ε₀A / d

Then, the potential difference across the plates is given by;

V = \frac{Q}{C} = \frac{Qd}{\epsilon_o A} = \frac{(4*10^{-6})(0.1*10^{-3})}{(8.85*10^{-12})(0.2)}\\\\V = 226 \ V

Therefore, the potential difference across the plates is 226 V.
