to measure the static friction coefficient between a block and a vertical wall, a spring is attached to the block, is pushed on

the end in a direction perpendicular to the wall until the block does not slip downward. If the spring is compressed, what is the coefficient of static friction

Answer:

μ = mg/kx

Explanation:

Since the bock does not slip, the frictional force equals the weight of the block. So, F = mg. Now, the frictional force, F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = Normal force.

Now, the normal force equals the spring force F' = kx where k = spring constant and x = compression of spring.

N = F' = kx

So, F = μN = μkx

μkx = mg

So, μ = mg/kx

Calculate the net force on the right charge due to the other two. Enter a positive value if the force is directed to the right a
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Answer:

A. - 0.017N. It acts to the left.

B. - 0.043N. It acts to the left.

C. 0.060N. It acts to the right.

Explanation:

A. For the +65μC charge, we consider it to be the origin. Hence, the two other charges are on the +x axis.

The net coulombs force on the charge is

F = [KQ(1)Q(2)]/(r^2) + [KQ(1)Q(3)]/(r^2)

Where K = Coloumbs constant =

Q(1) = charge on the leftmost side.

Q(2) = charge in the middle.

Q(3) = charge on the rightmost side.

F = [(8.988 × 10^9)×(65×10^-6)×(48×10^-6)]/(40^2) + [(8.988 × 10^9)×(-95×10^-6)×(65×10^-6)]/(40^2)

F = 0.01753 - 0.03469

F = -0.017N

It has a negative sign, hence, it acts to the left.

B. For the +48μC charge, we consider it to be the origin. Hence, the leftmost charge is on the - x axis and the rightmost charge is on the +x axis.

The net coulombs force on the charge is

F = [-KQ(1)Q(3)]/(r^2) + [KQ(2)Q(3)]/(r^2)

F = [-(8.988×10^9)×(65×10^-6)×(48×10^-6)]/(40^2) + [(8.988 × 10^9)×(48×10^-6)×(-95×10^-6)]/(40^2)

F = -0.017 - 0.02562

F = - 0.043N

It has a negative sign, hence, it acts to the left.

C. For the -95μC charge, we consider it to be the origin. Hence, the two other charges are on the - x axis.

The net coulombs force on the charge is

F = [-KQ(1)Q(3)]/(r^2) - [KQ(2)Q(3)]/(r^2)

F = [-(8.988×10^9)×(65×10^-6)×(-95×10^-6)]/(40^2) - [(8.988 × 10^9)×(48×10^-6)×(-95×10^-6)]/(40^2)

F = +0.03469 + 0.02562

F = +0.060N

It has a positive sign, hence, it acts to the right.
