The direction of friction force is always the opposite of the direction of the movement.

In this problem, we have an applied force of 20N and this creates a movement. Then, the friction comes in and applies a force of 2.4N.

Because they are in different directions, we need to subtract them:
$20 - 2.4 = x \\ \\ x = 17.6$
We don't know the direction because there is no picture (at least I can't see ☺️). But the movement will be to the direction of the 20N.

Murljashka [212]

According to motion in straight line t1≠t2

A biker travels d1 meters in t1 seconds at v1 m/s for the first leg and d2 meters in t2 seconds at v2 m/s for the second leg. It's possible that t1t2 if his average speed is equal to the average of v1 and v2.
An object is said to be in motion if its position in relation to its surroundings changes over time. It is a shift in an object's position over time. The only type of motion that exists is motion in a straight line.

A reference system is constantly used to describe a particle's motion. An arbitrary origin point is used to create a reference system, and a coordinate system is imagined to be connected to it. The reference system for a specific problem is the coordinate system that has been selected for it. For the majority of the problems, we typically select an earth-based coordinate system as the reference system.

figure 2 shows a charged ball of mass m = 1.0 g and charage q = -24*10^-8 c suspended by massless string in the presence of a un

Vlad [161]

Answer:

E = 307667 N/C

Explanation:

Since the object's mass is 1 g, then its weight in newtons is 0.001 * 9.8 = 0.0098 N.

This weight should have the same magnitude of the vertical component of the tension T of the string (T * cos(37)) so we can find the magnitude of the tension T via:

0.0098 N = T * cos(37)

then T = 0.0098/cos(37) N = 0.01227 N

Knowing the tension's magnitude, we can find its horizontal component:

T * sin(37) = 0.007384 N

and now we can obtain the value of the electric field since we know the charge of the ball to be: -2.4 * 10^(-8) C:

0.007384 N = E * 2.4 * 10^(-8) C

Then E = 0.007384/2.4 * 10^(-8) N/C

E = 307667 N/C

You and a friend each carry identical boxes from the first floor of a building to a room located on the second floor, farther do

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Work done in both the cases will be same

Explanation:

As we know that the work done against gravity is given as

$W = F_g .d$

here we know that gravitational force is a conservative force and the work done against gravitational force is independent of the path

So here the work done by person to move the object between two different heights will be independent of the path they choose

So for the first person and second person will be same in both the cases because the height through which the boxes are transferred will be same in both the cases

Thick rubber gloves prevent electric shock because

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Rubber is an insulator.

Explanation:

Rubber is an insulator. Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance." Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.
