A chair exerts a force of 20 N on a floor and is not moving. What force does

Physics

AysviL [449]3 years ago

The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"</em>

In this problem, we can identify:

- Object A as the chair

- Object B as the floor

This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.

Design a solution that can monitor and minimize the melting of sea ice caused by human activity
dedylja [7]

Answer:

CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.

Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.

Why is it difficult to walk on muddy road?
Gnesinka [82]
Because of internal friction between layers of mud particles called viscosity. When you walk, your foot exerts a force on the mud; and according to Newton, the mud also (is supposed to) exert an equal opposite force, which leading to an equal net resultant force in your direction, propelling you forward.

Determine the direction of the force that will act on the charge in each of the following situations. A negative charge moving t
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a) DOWN direction,  b)  directed INTO THE SCREEN, c)    F = 0

Explanation:

The direction of the force is

for electric force

           F = q E

where we assume a positive test charge, for which the force has the direction of the electric field.

For a magnetic field

in this case the direction of the force is given by the right hand rule.

For a positive test charge, the thumb points in the direction of velocity, the other fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, and the palm gives the direction of force for a positive charge.

           F = q v x B

Let us apply these considerations to our case.

a) negative charge moving to the left

in a magnetic field points away from the screen

In this case the thumb goes to the left, the fingers extended outwards and the palm points upwards, but since the charge is negative the force has a DOWN direction.

b) negative charge moves to the left

in electric field it points off the screen.

The outside is in the direction of the electric field and since the charge is negative, the force is directed INTO THE SCREEN

c) positive charge moves down

in magnetic field points up

in this case the velocity and the field have the same direction so the vector product of them is zero

       F = q v  B sin 0

       F = 0
