Answer:

A. The applied force should be the same size as the friction force

Explanation:

Whenever we apply a force to an object it moves if the force applied to that object is unbalanced and there is no force or a lesser force to counter it. According to Newton's Second Law of motion, when an unbalanced force is applied to an object it produces an acceleration in the object in its own direction. So, the two forces acting on this box are the frictional force and the applied force in horizontal direction. In order to move the box at constant speed, the applied force must first, overcome the frictional force, so the object can start its motion. Since, the motion has constant velocity, it means no acceleration. So, the force must be balanced in order to avoid acceleration as a consequence of Newton's Second Law of motion. Therefore, the correction in this case will be:

<u>A. The applied force should be the same size as the friction force</u>

Calculate their densties in Si unit.<br>200mg,0.0004m​
Kryger [21]

Question: calculate their densties in Si unit.

200mg,0.0004m​³

Answer:

0.5 kg/m³

Explanation:

Applying,

D = m/V........................ Equation 1

Where D = density, m = mass, V = volume.

From the question,

Given: m = 200 mg = (200/1000000) kg = 2.0×10⁻⁴ kg, V = 0.0004 m³ = 4.0×10⁻⁴ m³

Substitute these values into equation 1

D = (2.0×10⁻⁴ kg)/(4.0×10⁻⁴)

D = 2/4

D = 0.5 kg/m³

Hence the density in S.I unit is 0.5 kg/m³

An incandescent bulb produces 520 lumens and has an efficacy of 13 lm/W.
Mars2501 [29]

(520 lm) divided by (13 lm/W)

= (520 lm) times (W/13lm)

= (520/13) (lm · W / lm)

= 40 W

Rama09 [41]

The magnetic field lines due to a straight, current-carrying wire are circular.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The concepts of Electromagnetism brought a new revolution to the science world. The idea is the source of many new modes of power and machines that reduces the manual work. Motors are the best example of machines that run on the concepts of electromagnetism. So the concept is that a current-carrying conductor induces a magnetic field in its nearby premise.

This magnetic field can perceive by the magnetic line of forces. Now, if we pour some iron dust around a current-carrying conductor, we'll see a concentric circular pattern around the straight wire whose centre will be at the conductor axis. The pattern of these magnetic lines of force may deflect with the variation of current in the wire but remain in the circular format.
