Answer: 12 N to the right

Explanation:

If we calculate the net force acting on the box, we will have:

<u>In y-component:</u>

Fy_{net}=F_{n}+F_{g} (1)

Where F_{n}=12 N is the Normal force, directed upwards and F_{g}=-12 N is the weight of the box (gravity force), directed downwards.

Fy_{net}=12 N-12 N (2)

Fy_{net}=0 N (3) Hence the net force in the vertical component is zero

<u>In x-component:</u>

Fx_{net}=F_{left}+F_{right} (4)

Where F_{left}=-3 N and F_{right}= 15 N

Fx_{net}=-3 N + 15 N (5)

Fx_{net}=12 N (6) This is the net force in the horizontal component

Therefore, the total net force acting on the box is 12 N directed to the right

Glass has a hardness that is in the middle of the hardness scale. What is the hardness of Glass?
sweet [91]

Answer: 5.5

Explanation:

Let's start by explaining that hardness is a property that materials have related to the opposition or resistance they offer to alterations such as penetration, abrasion, scratching, cutting, and permanent deformations, among others.

In this context, several hardness scales have been developed to catalog the materials (specifically minerals), being the Mohs scale  the best known. This scale, proposed by the German geologist Friedrich Mohs in 1825, consists of a ratio of ten minerals numbered in increasing order by hardness, from least to greatest.

This is how the scale starts at 1 with the talc (considered the softest material) and ends at 10 with the diamond as the hardest.

Now, if we are told that the glass is in the middle of the hardness scale that goes from 1 to 10, logically its value will be 5 (volcanic glass). However, according to the scale, the glass is at 5.5.

A dielectric-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plate area A = 30.0 cm2 , plate separation d = 9.00 mm and dielectric constant
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

Explanation:

The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=\epsilon_0 k \frac{A}{d}

where

ϵ0 = 8.85x10-12 C2/N.m2 is the vacuum permittivity

k = 3.00 is the dielectric constant

A=30.0 cm^2 = 30.0\cdot 10^{-4}m^2 is the area of the plates

d = 9.00 mm = 0.009 m is the separation between the plates

Substituting,

C=(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(3.00 ) \frac{30.0\cdot 10^{-4} m^2}{0.009 m}=8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F

Now we can calculate the energy of the capacitor, given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

where

C is the capacitance

V = 15.0 V is the potential difference

Substituting,

U=\frac{1}{2}(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F)(15.0 V)^2=9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

How is thermal energy naturally transferred between objects?
Sladkaya [172]

The second law of thermodynamics establishes restrictions on the flow of thermal energy between two bodies. This law states that the energy does not flow spontaneously from a low temperature object T1, to another object that is at a high temperature T2.

For example. Suppose you place your cell phone on the table. Your phone is at a temperature of 40 ° C and the table is at 19 ° C. Then, it is impossible for the table to spontaneously transfer its thermal energy to the telephone, and so that the table gets colder and the telephone warmer.


Finally we can say that the correct option is B: From the hotter object to the cooler object
