Answer:

0.1

Explanation:

mass, m = 5 kg

θ = 60°

Force, F = 10 N

velocity is constant , it means the net force is zero.

So, the component of force along the surface is equal to the friction force

FCosθ = friction force

10 x cos 60 = μ x m x g

where, μ is the coefficient of friction

5 = μ x 5 x 9.8

μ = 0.1

Thus, the coefficient of friction is 0.1

An electron that has an instantaneous velocity of ???? = 2.0 × 106 m ???? ???? + 3.0 × 106 m ???? ???? is moving through the uni
Setler79 [48]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of the electron, v=(2\times 10^6i+3\times 10^6j)\ m/s

Magnetic field, B=(0.030i-0.15j)\ T

Charge of electron, q_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

(a) Let F_e is the force on the electron due to the magnetic field. The magnetic force acting on it is given by :

F_e=q_e(v\times B)

F_e=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times [(2\times 10^6i+3\times 10^6j)\times (0.030i-0.15j)]

F_e=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\times (-390000)(k)

F_e=6.24\times 10^{-14}k\ N

(b) The charge of electron, q_p=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

The force acting on the proton is same as force on electron but in opposite direction i.e (-k). Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following processes are Exothermic? I. Melting II. Sublimation III. Vaporization IV. Condensation
mariarad [96]

Answer: condensation process is exothermic. The correct option is IV.

Explanation: Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which heat is released to the surrounding environment.

condensation is defined as a process by which a medium changes from gaseous phase into liquid phase. Using water molecules to illustrate, to transform water molecules to gaseous phase it requires the heat of vaporization to be overcomed. This same hear of vaporization needs to be given off when changing back to liquid phase.
