A 35.8 kg box initially at rest is pushed 2.38 m along a rough, horizontal floor with a constant applied horizontal force of 108

.915 N. If the coefficient of friction between box and floor is 0.256, find the work done by the applied force. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of J.

Answer:

The work done by the applied force is 259.22 J.

Explanation:

The work done by the applied force is given by:

W = F*d

Where:

F: is the applied horizontal force = 108.915 N

d: is the distance = 2.38 m  

Hence, the work is:

W = F*d = 108.915 N*2.38 m = 259.22 J

Therefore, the work done by the applied force is 259.22 J.

I hope it helps you!

In a thunderstorm, electric charge builds up on the water droplets or ice crystals in a cloud. Thus, the charge can be considere
jolli1 [7]

1) 333.6 C

In order to have breakdown, the electric field at the surface of the cloud must be equal to the breakdown electric field:

E=3.00\cdot 10^6 N/C

The electric field strength at the surface of a charged sphere is given by

E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0} \frac{Q}{R^2}

where

\epsilon_0 = 8.85\cdot 10^{-12} C^2/(N^2 m^2) is the vacuum permittivity

Q is the charge on the sphere

R is the radius of the sphere

Here we have a cloud of radius

R = 1.00 km = 1000 m

So we can re-arrange the previous equation in order to find the charge on the cloud:

Q=4\pi \epsilon_0 ER^2=4\pi (8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(3.00\cdot 10^6)(1000)^2=333.6 C

2) 2.08\cdot 10^{21} excess electrons

The total charge of the cloud must be (in magnitude)

Q = 333.3 C

We know that one electron carries a charge of

e = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C

The total charge is just given by the charge of each electron multiplied by the number of excess electrons in the cloud:

Q=Ne

where

N is the number of excess electrons

Solving for N, we find:

N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{333.3 C}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C}=2.08\cdot 10^{21}

Your toaster has a power cord with a resistance of 2.2x10^−2 Ω connected in series with a 9.7 Ω nichrome heating element. The po
kati45 [8]

Answer:

(A) 654.545 Kw

(B) 2.885\times 10^5kw

Explanation:

We have given resistance of the toaster R_1=2.2\times 10^{-2}ohm=0.022ohm

Resistance of nichrome heating element R_2=9.7ohm

Both the resistances are connected in series so same current will flow through the circuit

Potential difference across the toaster V = 120 volt

So current i=\frac{120}{0.022}=5454.5454A

(a) Power dissipated in toaster P=i^2R=5454.5454^2\times 0.022=654545.441W=654.545kw

(B) Power dissipated in heating element  P=i^2R=5454.5454^2\times 9.7=2.885\times 10^8W=2.885\times 10^5kw
