Answer:

Frictional force, f = 4180.11 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the truck, m = 3500 kg

It is parked on a 7 degrees slope. Let f is the frictional force acting on the truck. The force acting on it parallel to the slope is equal to the friction force required to prevent the truck from moving. It is given by :

$f=mg\ sin\theta$

$f=3500\times 9.8 \ sin(7)$

f = 4180.11 N

So, the friction force on the truck is 4180.11 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

4180 N

Explanation:

In order to keep the truck balanced and stationary, the force of friction on the truck must be equal to the component of the weight of the truck acting parallel to the slope.

The component of the weight of the truck acting parallel to the slope is:

$mg sin \theta$

where

m = 3500 kg is the mass of the truck

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

$\theta=7.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of the slope

Therefore, the force of friction must be equal to

$F=(3500)(9.8)(sin 7.0^{\circ})=4180 N$

The flow of electrons through a circuit is measured in which of the following units? A. electrical pressure B. amperes C. volts

damaskus [11]

The total quantity of electrons that have flowed through a circuit is a
quantity of charge, measured in Coulombs, or in Ampere-seconds.

The rate of flow of electrons, or more accurately the rate of flow of
the charge on them, is electrical current. Its unit is the Ampere.
1 Ampere is 1 Coulomb of charge per second.

Correct question:

A solenoid of length 0.35 m and diameter 0.040 m carries a current of 5.0 A through its windings. If the magnetic field in the center of the solenoid is 2.8 x 10⁻² T, what is the number of turns per meter for this solenoid?

Answer:

the number of turns per meter for the solenoid is 4.5 x 10³ turns/m.

Explanation:

Given;

length of solenoid, L= 0.35 m

diameter of the solenoid, d = 0.04 m

current through the solenoid, I = 5.0 A

magnetic field in the center of the solenoid, 2.8 x 10⁻² T

The number of turns per meter for the solenoid is calculated as follows;

$B =\mu_o I(\frac{N}{L} )\\\\B = \mu_o I(n)\\\\n = \frac{B}{\mu_o I} \\\\n = \frac{2.8 \times 10^{-2}}{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 5.0} \\\\n = 4.5 \times 10^3 \ turns/m$
