Answer:

4\cdot 10^4 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}

where

F is the net force applied on the object

m is the mass of the object

For the book in the problem, we have:

m=0.5 g =5\cdot 10^{-4} kg is the mass

F=20 N is the force applied

Substituting into the formula, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{20 N}{5\cdot 10^{-4} kg}=4\cdot 10^4 m/s^2

What is any push or pull on an object called?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects.

This is about resistance, voltage, current<br>any answers greatly appreciated
guapka [62]
Current<span> is a flow of electrical charge carriers, usually electrons or electron-deficient atoms. ... Physicists consider </span>current<span> to flow from relatively positive points to relatively negative points; this is called conventional </span>current<span> or Franklin </span>current. Electrons, the most common charge carriers, are negatively charged.
Voltage<span> is electric potential energy per unit charge, measured in joules per coulomb ( = volts). It is often referred to as "electric potential", which then must be distinguished from electric potential energy by noting that the "potential" is a "per-unit-charge" quantity.</span>

The electrical resistance<span> of a circuit component or device is defined as the ratio of the voltage applied to the electric current whichflows through it: If the </span>resistance<span> is constant over a considerable range of voltage, then Ohm's law, I = V/R, can be used to predict the behavior of the material.b

Describe the difference between a scientific law and a scientific theory
Luda [366]
A scientific law is absolute, it cannot be proven wrong. A scientific theory is like a belief, it has been proven but can also be argued or disproven.

Two parallel wires separated by 4.00cm repel each other with a force per unit length of 2.00×10⁻⁴ N/m . The current in one wire
Lesechka [4]

The currents in the wires are in opposite directions.

  • Two long parallel wires separated by a distance 'r' having current I_1 and I_2  have force per unit length which is given by   f=\frac{u_0 I_1I_2}{2\pi r}.....(1)  where u_0 is permittivity of free space whose value is 4\pi \times10^{-7}Tm/A .

If the current flowing through the wire are in same direction then they the wire attract each other and if the current flowing through the wire are opposite in direction then they the wire repel each other .

As it is given that two wires repel each other which means that current in the wires are in opposite direction .

Hence current flowing through wires are opposite in direction.
