Answer:

The greatest horizontal force that can be exerted without moving the table is 168.56N.

Explanation:

The maximum friction force is determined from the coefficient of static friction as follows:

F_{fr}=\mu\cdot F_{norm} = 0.43\cdot F_{norm}

where the the normal force is exerted by the ground as a reaction to the weight of the table, and has same magnitude as but opposite direction to the gravitational force on the table:

F_{fr} = 0.43\cdot 40kg\cdot 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} = 168.56 N

This is the <em>maximum</em> static force, so the friction force will be matching and opposing any horizontal force up to 168.56N.

The force equals the coefficient of static friction times the weight. Use gravity g=9.8 m/s^2
0.43*40*9.8=16.856 N

If a vector A has components A. 0, and Ay -0, then the magnitude of the vector is negative. Select one: True False
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The magnitude of any vector is given by,

||A||=\sqrt{A_x^2+A_y^2}

The magnitude of anything is never negative. It can be even seen from the formula that the components are squared. A squared value can never be negative. Even if the component is negative the square will be always positive.

So, magnitude of the vector is <u>not</u> negative.

A solenoid used to produce magnetic fields for research purposes is 2.1 m long, with an inner radius of 28 cm and 1000 turns of
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

I = 2172.46 A

Explanation:

Given that,

The length of a solenoid, l = 2.1 m

The inner radius of the solenoid, r = 28 cm = 0.28 m

The number of turns in the wire, N = 1000

The magnetic field in the solenoid, B = 1.3 T

We need to find the current carried by it. We know that, the magnetic field in a solenoid is given by :

B=\mu_o nI\\\\or\\\\B=\mu_o \dfrac{N}{L}I\\\\I=\dfrac{BL}{\mu_o N}

Put all the values,

I=\dfrac{1.3\times 2.1}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 1000}\\\\I=2172.46\ A

So, it carry current of 2172.46 A.

A positively charged particle moves through an electric field. As part of a complicated trajectory, the particle passes through
kow [346]

Answer:

(B) The speed is larger at A than at B.

Explanation:

Point B, the final point of the trajectory, has higher electric potential than point A, the initial point of the trajectory, so the electric potential energy of the charged particle increases, which means that its kinetic energy must be decreasing, thus the speed at B must be lower than the speed at A.
