A block with a weight of 9.0 N is at rest on a horizontal surface. A 1.2 N upward force is applied to the block by means of an a

ttached vertical string. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the force of the block on the horizontal surface

Answer:

a)   9 - 1.2 = 7.8 N

b) Since the force exerted by the box is it's weight, it acts in a downward direction. So the box will exert a force downward (perpendicular to the horizontal surface).

Explanation:

A 9N block would exert 9N of normal force on the horizontal plane under normal conditions. But in this case, we have a spring taking away some of the force by applying an upward force on the box.

So the force exerted by the box on the surface would now be:

a)   9 - 1.2 = 7.8 N

b) Since the force exerted by the box is it's weight, it acts in a downward direction. So the box will exert a force downward (perpendicular to the horizontal surface).

At what point on a line through the ends of the meter stick is the electric field equal to zero?
Gnesinka [82]

The point on a line through the ends of the meter stick is the electric field equal to zero is 4.7 m from the 0 cm mark.

<h3>What is electric field?</h3>

An electric field is the physical field that surrounds the electrically charged particles and exerts force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them. It also refers to physical field for a system of charged particles. Electric fields originate from the electric charges and time-varying electric currents. Electric fields and the magnetic fields are both manifestations of the electromagnetic field, one of the four fundamental interactions (also called forces) of nature.

Electric fields are important in many areas of the physics, and are exploited in electrical technology. In atomic physics and chemistry, for the instance, the electric field is the attractive force holding the atomic nucleus and electrons together in atoms. It is also force responsible for chemical bonding between atoms that result in molecules.

The electric field is defined as a vector field that associates to each point in the space the (electrostatic or Coulomb) force per unit of charge exerted on an infinitesimal positive test charge at rest at that point. The derived SI unit for electric field is the volt per meter (V/m), which is equal to the newton per coulomb (N/C)

The correct question will be:

"A +5.00-μC point charge is placed at 0.0 cm mark of meter stick and a -4.00-μC point charge is placed at 50.0 cm mark. At what point on a line through the ends of meter stick is electric field equal to zero?"

A lamp is rated for 240v,2.5A.what is the cost of using the lamp for 3hrs if 1kWh of electricity cost #12​
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

≈ 22¢

Explanation:

240 / 1000 = 0.240 kV

0.240 kV(2.5 A)(3 hr) = 1.8 kW•hr

1.8 kW•hr($0.12/kW•hr) = $0.216
