Answer:

No.

Explanation:

If there are no applied forces, normal force is usually equivalent to the weight of the object but if there are outside force (force that makes the object to move) especially if it's inclined, then the inclined force would then affect the normal force.

An electron with a charge of -1.6 × 10-19 coulombs experiences a field of 1.4 × 105 newtons/coulomb. What is the magnitude of th

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Electric force, $F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on an electron is $-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Electric field, $E=1.4\times 10^5\ N/m$

We need to find the magnitude of the electric force on this electron due to this field. The electric force is given by :

$F=qE\\\\F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.4\times 10^5\\\\F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N$

So, the electric force is $2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N$ .

What happens to a light wave when it travels from air into glass?

tino4ka555 [31]

Light is refracted when it crosses the interface from air to glass in which it moves more slowly.
Since the light speed changes at the interface, the wave length of the light must change too. The wave length decreases as the light enter the medium and the light wave changes direction.
