I would rather be hit by the deflated ball because it wouldn't hurt as bad because it wouldn't have a lot of weight to hurt me in anyway
Answer:
Electromagnets are special types of magnets that are made by passing current through coils of wire. To make an electromagnet, the minimum requirements are:
1. A nail (usually made of iron, steel or zinc)
2. Dry cell batteries
3. Wire (Usually copper wire)
Other things could be:
1. Electric tape to hold both ends of the wire properly at the battery terminals.
2. Scissors to cut the wire into desired length.
3. Iron fillings for testing purposes.
Hi there!
Recall that:
∑F = ma
In the given situation, there is acceleration occurring in the horizontal direction, so there is a net force.
∑F = Fa (Force applied) - Fκ (Force due to kinetic friction)
We can plug in given values to solve for the frictional force:
ma = Fa - Fκ
(4)(1) = 8 - Fκ
4 = 8 - Fk
Fκ= 4N (negative since working opposite to acceleration)
Now, solve given the new force:
4a = 16 - 4
4a = 12
a = 3 m/s², Answer C.
