A direct current
this is a current that only flows in one direction
The magnitude of the friction force is 25 N
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we just have to analyze the forces acting on the block along the horizontal direction. We have:
- The horizontal component of the pulling force,
, where F = 50 N is the magnitude and
is the angle between the direction of the force and the horizontal; this force acts in the forward direction - The force of friction,
, acting in the backward direction
According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the block in the horizontal direction must be equal to the product between the mass of the block and its acceleration:

where
m is the mass of the block
is the horizontal acceleration
However, the block is moving at constant speed, so the acceleration is zero:

So the equation becomes
(1)
The net force here is given by
(2)
And so, by combining (1) and (2), we find the magnitude of the friction force:

<span>Nuclear energy can be used to power all of
the above choices. Nuclear power plants produce radioactive waste that must be
stored properly. It is very impossible for a nuclear power plant to have no
waste at all since lots of chemicals are used to create the process as it gives
energy to other machines, weapons such as bombs and powering submarines. Radioactive waste can not be released into
local water supplies since the wastes are very radioactive and may cause
mutation to the fishes and bioaccumulation which will affect humans as well. It
will also cause air pollution if the chemicals are not stored properly.</span>
Answer:
Because of inertia (Newton's First Law of motion)
Explanation:
According to Newton's First Law of motion:
"An object at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) will tend to stay at rest (or tend to keep moving with same velocity) unless acted upon an unbalanced force"
In this problem, the object we are analyzing is the coffee cup.
At the beginning, the cup is at rest, together with the car.
Later, the car starts moving when the light turns green.
If we apply Newton's First Law of motion to the cup, we see that the coffee cup tends to keep its state of rest: for this reason, as the car moves forward, the coffee in the cup will spill backward, into the rear seat. This property of an object to mantain its state of motion is also called as inertia.
