Answer:
The net force on the box is 2 N to the left.
The box will move to the left.
The acceleration on the box is 0.5 m/s^2 to the left.
Explanation:
Let's say movement to the right is positive and left is negative.
Bob: +10 N
John: -12 N
Add those together and you get a net force of -2 N, and the negative sign means that the box is moving to the left.
For the acceleration:
Fnet = ma
-2 = (4 kg)a
a = -0.5 m/s^2
Again, the negative sign in this answer means the box is being accelerated to the left.
Answer: a = 1.32 * 10^18m/s² due north
Explanation: The magnitude of the force required to move the electron is given as
F = ma
The force exerted on the charge by the electric field of intensity (E) is given by
F = Eq
Thus
Eq = ma
a = E * q/ m
Where a = acceleration of charge
E = strength of electric field = 7400N/c
q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609 * 10^-6c
m = mass of an electronic charge = 9.109 * 10^-31kg
a = 7400 * 1.609 * 10^-16/ 9.109 * 10^-31
a = 11906.6 * 10^-16 / 9.019 * 10^-31
a = 1.19 * 10^-12 / 9.019 * 10^-31
a = 0.132 * 10^19
a = 1.32 * 10^18m/s²
As stated in the question, the direction of the electric field is due north hence, the direction of it force will also be north thus making the electron experience a force due north ( according to Newton second law of motion)
