Frictional force and Applied force has same “magnitude” and “opposite” direction.

Option: B

<u>Explanation</u>:

When a book is moved horizontally by applying “force” on the book, the frictional force is opposed to the book by the table. Here, this “frictional force” is opposing the book has the same force what we applied on the book but this frictional force and the applied force are opposite in direction. Always the “frictional force” is opposite to the “applied force” which stops the object to move. For example, if a force applied leftward to the object the frictional force is acted on the right side of the object.

When two objects are in contact they experience a "frictional force". This "frictional force" acts opposite to the force applied on to move the object.

Formula for "frictional force" is $\mu\times N$

Where, $\mu$ is coefficient of friction and N is normal force.

In general, how did the water pressure in the tank change when mass was added to the fluid?

MissTica

Answer:

As the height increases the pressure must increase.

Explanation:

When we add masses to the fluid, the amount of fluid in the tank increases, therefore its height increases and the pressure is described by the expression

P = ρ g h

where rho is constant for a given fluid and h is the height measured from the surface of the fluid.

As the height increases the pressure must increase.

Explain why the shortening velocity became slower as the load became heavier in this experiment. how well did the results compar

valkas [14]

<span>The shortening velocity refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. Maximal shortening velocity is only attained with a minimal load. With a light load, the shortening velocity is at its Maximal shortening velocity. When the weight is heavy, the speed in which the muscle lifts the weight decreases in speed at a slower velocity.</span>

A uniformly charged, straight filament 5.10 m in length has a total positive charge of 2.00 µC. An uncharged cardboard cylinder

Ratling [72]

Answer:

70509.8039216 N/C

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = $8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

q = Charge = 2.00 µC

l = Length of filament = 5.1 m

r = Radius of cylinder = 10 cm

$\lambda=\dfrac{q}{l}$

Electric field is given by

$E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{2\times 8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{2\times 10^{-6}}{5.1}}{10\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow E=70509.8039216\ N/C$
