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

Difference between displacement and vector quantity
daser333 [38]

The only 'difference' is that they are different categories.

It's like asking "What's the difference between Susie and girl ?"

Or "What's the difference between Cadillac and car ?"

Displacement <em>IS</em> a vector quantity.

A current of 0.4 A flows through a wire. How many electrons flow through a cross section of
Free_Kalibri [48]

9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

<h3>What is the relation between current and charge?</h3>
  • Mathematically, current = charge / time
  • In S.I. unit, Charge is written in Coulomb and time in second.

<h3>What is the amount of charge flown through a wire for one hour if it carries 0.4 A current?</h3>
  • Charge= current × time
  • Current= 0.4 A, time = 1 hour= 3600 s
  • Charge= 0.4× 3600

= 1440 C

<h3>How many numbers of electrons present in 1440C of charge?</h3>
  • One electron= 1.6 × 10^(-19) C
  • So, 1440 C = 1440/1.6 × 10^(-19)

= 9 × 10²¹ electrons

Thus, we can conclude that the 9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

arlik [135]

The statement 'establishing a high critical value in a statistical test is associated with more confidence' is TRUE.

<h3>What is statistical significance?</h3>

The statistical significance is a arbitrary value used to indicate that data collected can be used to confirm (or reject) my working hypothesis.

The most widely used value to measure the statistical significance is the p threshold.

In conclusion, the statement 'Establishing a high critical value when calculating the results of a statistical test means that a researcher will have more confidence in finding significance than when a lower critical value is established' is TRUE.
