Answer:

Wt = 26.84 [N]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must use the definition of work in physics. Which tells us that this is equal to the product of force by distance.

In this case, we must sum the works of the force applied by the box and the friction force that also acts on the box.

The friction force is defined as the product of the normal force by the coefficient of friction.

f = N*μ

where:

N = normal force = m*g [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 72 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

f = friction force [N]

μ = friction coefficient = 0.21

f = 72*9.81*0.21

f = 148.32 [N]

Now the total work:

Wt = WF - Wf

where:

Wt = total work [J] (units of Joules)

WF = work by the pushing force [J]

Wf = work done by the friction force [J]

Wt = (160*2.3) - (148.32*2.3)

Wt = 26.84 [N]

Note: The friction force exerts a negative work, because this force is acting in opposite direction to the movement, therefore the negative sign.

What is the electric force acting between two charges of -0.0045 C and -0.0025 C that are 0.0060 m apart? Use Fe=kq1q2/r^2 and k
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

D. 2.8 × 10⁹ N

Explanation:

The force between two charges is directly proportional to the amount of charges at the two points and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the two points.

Fe= k Q₁Q₂/r²

Q₁= -0.0045 C

Q₂= -0.0025 C

r= 0.0060 m

k= 9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²

Fe= (9.00 × 10 ⁹ Nm²/C²×-0.0045 C×-0.0025 C)/0.0060²

=2.8 × 10⁹ N

Distinguish between a converging lens and a diverging lens.
andriy [413]

Answer:A converging lens is thickest in the middle and causes parallel light rays to converge through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. A diverging lens is thinner in the middle and causes parallel light rays to diverge away from the focal point on the same side of the lens.

Electromagnetic waves are ........... by shiny surfaces.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves are reflected

Explanation:

Reflection of light (and other forms of electromagnetic radiation) occurs when the waves encounter a surface or other boundary that does not absorb the energy of the radiation and bounces the waves away from the surface. ... This concept is often termed the Law of Reflection.

A 8.4-mH inductor carries a current I = Imaxsin ωt, with Imax = 4.00 A and f = ω/2π = 60.0 Hz. What is the self-induced emf as a
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

E= -3.166 cosωt   V

Explanation:

Given that

I = Imax sinωt

L= 8.4 m H

Imax= 4 A

f = ω/2π = 60.0 Hz

ω = 120π  rad/s

We know that self induce E given as

E=-L\dfrac{dI}{dt}

\dfrac{dI}{dt}= Imax \ \omega\ cos\omega t

E=-L\times Imax \ \omega\ cos\omega t

E=-8.4\times 120\times \pi \ cos\omega t

E= -3166.72 cosωt  m V

E= -3.166 cosωt   V

This is the induce emf.
