Explanation:
It represents the direction of flow of positive charge but is treated as a scalar quantity because current follows the laws of scalar addition and not the laws of vector addition. The angle between the wires carrying current does not affect the total current in the circuit.
Answer:
The force applied to the surface is 9 kilo Newton.
Explanation:
While jumping on the surface the player applies the force that is equal to its weight on the surface.
The mass of the player is given as 90 kg.
Force applied by the player = weight of the player
Force applied by the player = m × g
Where m is the mass of the player and g is acceleration due to gravity
Force applied by the player = 90 × 9.8
Force applied by the player = 882 Newton
Expressing your answer to one significant figure, we get
Force applied by the player =0. 9 kilo Newton
The force applied to the surface is 0.9 kilo Newton.
Answer:
A box sits stationary on a ramp
Explanation:
Static friction is a force which keeps an object at rest as it is in the case of the box. It has to be overcome for the object to be set into motion.
Static force of friction is calculated as follows:
F= μη
F is static force of friction.
μ is the coefficient of static friction.
η is the normal force.
For the first part of this question, consider that "weight" can be described as mass x acceleration of gravity. Weight is expressed in Newtons. To solve for mass in this case, simply divide 9800N by 9.8m/s^2 (Earth's gravitational acceleration). This will give you a mass of 1000 kg. This mass is moved due to the net force supplied by the normal force from the rocket "pushing" off of Earth.
For the second part, we will use the equation F = ma, which is Newton's second law. For this, we know the m, or mass, is 1000 kg. Also, we know the a, or acceleration, will be 4 m/s^2. To solve for force, we will multiply both of these values. This gives a force of 4000 N. I hope this clears things up!
I believe the answer is a
