A filing cabinet weighing 556 N rests on the floor. The coefficient of static friction between it and the floor is 0.68, and the

coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.56. In four different attempts to move it, it is pushed with horizontal forces of magnitudes
(a) 222 N,
(b) 334 N,
(c) 445 N, and
(d) 556 N. For each attempt, calculate the magnitude of the frictional force on it from the floor. (The cabinet is initially at rest.) (e) In which of the attempts does the cabinet move?

zvonat [6]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

"Static friction is a force that keeps an object at rest. It must be overcome to start moving the object."

(556 x 0.68) = static friction of 378.08N. before movement occurs.

The  forces (a) and (b) will not move it.  

Each will incur a frictional force preventing movement equal to itself, = 222N. and 334N. respectively.

Forces (c) and (d) will move it, and accelerate it.

Forces (c) and (d) will both encounter friction of (556 x 0.56) = 311.36N. when the cabinet is moving.

Two electrons with a charge of magnitude 1.6×10-19 C in an atom are separated by 1.5×10-10 m, the typical size of an atom. What
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

1.02\cdot 10^{-8} N, repulsive

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric force between two charged particles is given by Coulomb's law:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where:

k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant

q_1, q_2 are the two charges of the two particles

r is the separation between the two charges

The force is:

- repulsive if the two charges have  same  sign

- Attractive if the two charges have opposite signs

In this problem, we have two electrons, so:

q_1=q_2=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C is the magnitude of the two electrons

r=1.5\cdot 10^{-10} m is their separation

Substituting into the formula, we find the electric force between them:

F=(8.99\cdot 10^9)\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})^2}{(1.5\cdot 10^{-10})^2}=1.02\cdot 10^{-8} N

And the force is repulsive, since the two electrons have same sign charge.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

b. craters, river valleys feeding into surface lakes of very cold liquids

Explanation:

  • Jovian moons are the four largest satellites like the moon of the Jupiter ie the Lo, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto and were first seen by the galileo. They are amiugly the largest moons with radii larger than the dwarf planet.  
  • Lo has more than 400 active volcanoes and dotted more than 100 mountains and has an extremely thin atmosphere made up of sulfur dioxide. The Europa has deep oceans of liquid water, and the layer of ice, and are characteristic of the tidal heating.  
  • <u>While the surface of Callisto is heavily cratered and has salty liquid water.</u>
