Direct current (DC) is the flow of electric charge in only one direction. ... Alternating current (AC) is the flow of electric charge that periodically reverses direction. If the source varies periodically, particularly sinusoidally, the circuit is known as an alternating current circuit.

how would the velocity of the book change if the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force
Inessa [10]
Yes, Sliding friction opposes the movement of the book, slowing it down.sliding That's the 'kinetic' kind.. According to Newton's second law, F=ma. That is, the bear's acceleration should be proportional to the total force acting on the bear. As the bear's velocity is constant, its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the total Force acting on the bear is zero. Thus, the friction has to be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the bear's weight. As W=mg, we get that its weight is  <span>9.8*400=3,920 Newton. Thus, the friction acting on the bear is 3,920 Newton</span>

Two blocks connected by a rope of negligible mass are being dragged by a horizontal force (see figure below). Suppose F = 65.0 N
vovangra [49]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

g = 9.8 m/s², and air resistance is ignored.

For mass m₁:
The normal reaction is m₁g.
The resisting force is R₁ = μm₁g.

For mass m₂:
The normal reaction is m₂g.
The resisting force is R₂ = μm₂g.

Let a =  the acceleration of the system.
Then
(m₁ + m₂)a = F - (R₁ + R₂)
(14+26 kg)*(a m/s²) = (65 N) - 0.098*(9.8 m/s²)*(14+26 kg)
40a = 65 - 38.416 = 26.584
a = 0.6646 m/s²

Answer:  0.665 m/s²  (nearest thousandth)
