A chair of weight 85.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F =

40.0 N directed at an angle of 35.0deg below the horizontal and the chair slides along the floor.
Using Newton's laws, calculate n, the magnitude of the normal force that the floor exerts on the chair.

Answer:

 N = 107.94 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Newton's second law.

Let's set a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the ground and the y-axis vertical

X axis

        Fₓ = ma

ej and

       N -F_y - W = 0

let's use trigonometry to decompose the applied force

     cos -35 = Fₓ / F

     sin -35 = F_y / F

     Fₓ = F cos -35

     F_y = F sin -35

     Fₓ = 40.0 cos -35 = 32.766 N

     F_y = 40.0 sin -35 = -22.94 N

we substitute

     N = Fy + W

     N = 22.94 + 85

     N = 107.94 N

weqwewe [10]
Choice-B is the correct one. 

-- The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus.
-- Each proton in the nucleus is usually matched by one electron in the 'cloud'.
-- The addition of a proton OR a neutron increases the mass number by 1 .
-- Electrons have such small mass that they don't figure into the atomic mass at all.

Which component of magma includes mobile ions of silicon?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Melt.

Explanation:

When rocks melt, they do so slowly and gradually because most rocks are made of several minerals, which all have different melting points; moreover, the physical and chemical relationships controlling the melting are complex. As a rock melts, for example, its volume changes. When enough rock is melted, the small globules of melt link up and soften the rock.

Under normal conditions, mantle rock like peridotite shouldn't melt in the Earth's upper mantle. However, by adding water you can lower the melting point of the rock. Alternatively, by decompressing the rock, you can bring it to a pressure where the melting point is lower. In both cases, basalt magma will form and considering it is hotter and less dense than the surrounding rock, it will percolate towards the surface and some of that erupts.
