Answer:
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.
The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.
Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.
To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.
W = m*g
W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]
W = 12.75 [N]
Answer:
How much does light bend? When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.
1) First of all, we need to find the distance between the two charges. Their distance on the xy plane is
substituting the coordinates of the two charges, we get
2) Then, we can calculate the electrostatic force between the two charges
and
, which is given by
where
is the Coulomb's constant.
Substituting numbers, we get
and the negative sign means the force between the two charges is attractive, because the two charges have opposite sign.
Answer:
6495.19 Joule
Explanation:
F = Weight of the crate = 250 N
d = Distance the cart is pushed = 30 m
θ = Angle of inclination = 60°
The weight of the crate will be resloved into two components
Fdsinθ and Fdcosθ
Work done by the force of gravity is
W = Fdsinθ
⇒W = 250×30×sin60
⇒W = 6495.19 Joule
∴ The work done by the force of gravity is 6495.19 Joule
