You happen to know that the coefficient of static friction between your patio table and the ground is 0.42. You decide you want

to move it (45kg) by pushing on it. Are you able to move the table?

Answer:

If the force applied is larger than 185.2 N, yes.

Explanation:

In order to move the table, the pushing force must be larger than the frictional force. The frictional force is given by:

F_f = \mu mg

where

\mu=0.42 is the coefficient of static friction

m=45 kg is the mass of the table

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

Substituting,

F_f=(0.42)(45 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=185.2 N

So, we are able to move the table if we push with a force larger than 185.2 N.

If a series circuit contains a 12-V battery, a 6-ohm resistor, and a 4-ohm resistor, what is the current in the circuit?
Shalnov [3]

In a series circuit the total current is the same throughout resistors and so:

I_{total}=I_1=I_2

The voltage is distributed throughout the resistors and so:

V_{total}=V_1+V_2

and the total resistance can be calculated by adding up the resistors resistance:

R_{total}=R_1+R_2

First thing is to calculate the total resistance and so:

R_{total}=6\Omega + 4\Omega = 10\Omega

And by Omh's law V=IR we have:

V_{total}=I_{total}R_{total}\\\\I_{total}=\frac{V_{total}}{R_{total}}= \frac{12V}{10\Omega} =1.2A

And so the total current of the circuit is 1.2 amps i.e. 1.2 A.
