Different structural forms of the same element are called

Compare and contrast electric motors and generators.

Marrrta [24]

Electric motors require electricity to move the motor parts and do work (like an electric fan).

Elecgric generators actually burn diesel fuel to spin a motor around and around and around to GENERATE, or MAKE, electricity that you can then use to power your fans and lights in your house.

A large refrigerator (mass 80kg) sits at rest inside a house. The homeowner wants to move the refrigerator across the room, so s

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

By the law of friction,

$F=\mu R$

$F$ is the maximum frictional force, $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and $R$ is the reaction on the refrigerator. On a horizontal surface, the reaction is equal to the weight of the refrigerator.

$R=mg$

$F=\mu mg$

While not moving, the fricition on the refrigerator is static friction. So, $\mu=0.65$

$F=0.65 \times80\times9.8=509.6 \text{ N}$

This is the maximum frictional force and is more than the applied horizontal force of 400 N. Frictional force cannot be more than the applied force, else it would actually pull the refrigerator backwards (a strange thing, if it were to happen). It is equal to the extent of the applied force because the applied force is not enough to overcome the maximum.

Hence the frictional force is 400 N.

PS: Note that we do not use the coefficient of kinetic friction because applied force could not overcome the static friction.
