A block of mass 4 kilograms is initially moving at 5m/s on a horizontal surface. There is friction between the block and the sur

face which causes the block to come to a complete stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.5.
Calculate the distance the block slides while coming to a stop. Show all work.

• Net vertical force on the block:

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

(<em>n</em> = magnitude of normal force, <em>w</em> = weight)

<em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>m g</em>

(<em>m</em> = mass, <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s²)

<em>n</em> = (4 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N

• Net horizontal force:

∑ <em>F</em> = -<em>f</em> = <em>m a</em>

(<em>f</em> = mag. of friction, <em>a</em> = acceleration)

We have <em>f</em> = <em>µ</em> <em>n</em> = 0.5 (39.2 N) = 19.6 N, so

-19.6 N = (4 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = -4.9 m/s²

With this acceleration, the block comes to a rest from an initial speed of 5 m/s, so that it travels a distance ∆<em>x</em> in this time such that

0² - (5 m/s)² = 2 (-4.9 m/s²) ∆<em>x</em>

∆<em>x</em> = (25 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²) ≈ 2.55 m ≈ 2.6 m

The Hall effect can be used to determine the density of mobile electrons in a conductor. A thin strip of the material being inve
solmaris [256]

Answer:

the density of mobile electrons in the material is 3.4716 × 10²⁵ m⁻³

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we make use of the following expression;

hall Voltage VH = IB / ned

where I = 2.25 A

B = 0.685 T

d =  0.107 mm =  0.107 × 10⁻³ m

e = 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ C

VH = 2.59 mV = 2.59 × 10⁻³ volt

n is the electron density

so from the form; VH = IB / ned

VHned = IB

n = IB / VHed

so we substitute

n = (2.25 × 0.685) / ( 2.59 × 10⁻³ × 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ × 0.107 × 10⁻³ )

n = 1.54125 /  4.4396226 × 10⁻²⁶

n = 3.4716 × 10²⁵ m⁻³

Therefore, the density of mobile electrons in the material is 3.4716 × 10²⁵ m⁻³

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

when the direction of the Current changes.

Explanation:

Electromagnet refers to an iron ore wrapped around with a coil of wire, in presence of electric current. As it acts like a magnet, when current is passed through it.

The north & south poles of magnetic fields produced by such magnet, change with direction of current passed through it.
