Kamala puts on inline skates and stands facing a wall. When she pushes against the wall, she rolls backward. Why does pushing ha

rder make her roll faster?
-The force of friction between the wheels and the ground decreases.

-The force of the wall pushing on her increases.

-The additional force decreases her weight.

-The extra force causes an increase of the normal force from the ground.

Because the force of the wall pushing on her increases.

According to Newton's third law of motion, to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the Kamala pushes the wall, the wall also pushes her. Pushing harder against the wall causes the force of the wall pushing her also increase. Thus, making her roll faster.

Answer: Second option "The force of the wall pushing on her increases."

Explanation: This is because of Newton's third law: For every action (force) in nature, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So when Kamala pushes against the wall, the wall is also pushing against Kamala, and this is what impulses her backward. So if she uses more force, then the wall sill apply more force on her, and then she will roll faster.

The right answer is then the second option: "The force of the wall pushing on her increases."

A spring stretches 1.68cm vertically when a 2.50kg object is suspended from it.Find the distance (in cm) the spring stretches if
Llana [10]

Answer:

2.96 cm

Explanation:

By Hook's law

Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extension(d)

 F = k × d

Force is the weight of the object, F = W = mg

So we get, mg = kd ⇒ m ∝ d

                                   2.5 ∝ 1.68  --------------(1)

                                   4.4 ∝ d'      --------------(2)

From (1) & (2),     4.4/2.5 = d'/1.68

                                   d' = 2.96 cm ⇒ the required extension.

A thin coil has 17 rectangular turns of wire. When a current of 4 A runs through the coil, there is a total flux of 5 ✕ 10−3 T ·
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Inductance, L = 0.0212 Henries

Explanation:

It is given that,

Number of turns, N = 17

Current through the coil, I = 4 A

The total flux enclosed by the one turn of the coil, \phi=5\times 10^{-3}\ Tm^2

The relation between the self inductance and the magnetic flux is given by :

L=\dfrac{N\phi}{I}

L=\dfrac{17\times 5\times 10^{-3}}{4}

L = 0.0212 Henries

So, the inductance of the coil is 0.0212 Henries. Hence, this is the required solution.
