This is a problem about a child pushing a stack of two blocks along a horizontal floor. The masses of the blocks, and the coeffi

cients of friction between the two blocks and between the lower block and the floor will be given. In order to do the pushing, the child will only be touching one of the two blocks. The mass of the upper block in the stack is 0.760 kg . The mass of the lower block in the stack is 1.630 kg . The coefficients of friction between the two blocks are: static 0.790, and kinetic 0.660. The child's mother, who likes to encourage his experiments, has oiled a small strip of the horizontal floor so that it is very slick; the coefficient of kinetic friction between the oiled section of floor and the lower block is only 0.080 and the coefficient of static friction is insignificantly different. Before the pushing starts, here is a question about the vertical forces acting on the two blocks.
Required:
What is the vertical component of the contact force on the lower block by the floor?

Answer:

 N = 23.4 N

Explanation:

After reading that long sentence, let's solve the question

The contact force is the so-called normal in this case we can find it by writing the translational equilibrium equation for the y axis

            N - w₁ -w₂ =

            N = m₁ g + m₂ g

            N = g (m₁ + m₂)

let's calculate

            N = 9.8 (0.760 + 1.630)

            N = 23.4 N

This is the force of the support of the two blocks on the surface.

I need ideas of what kind of simple motor i can build and how i can build it. The simple motor MUST spin without using your own
Alborosie

See for yourself how the forces of electricity and magnetism can work together by building a simple DC electric motor using simple materials you can find in any hardware store!

Electricity and magnetism are both forces caused by the movement of tiny charged particles that make up atoms, the building blocks of all matter. When a wire is hooked up to a battery, current flows through the wire because negatively charged electrons flow from the negative terminal of the battery toward the positive terminal of the battery because opposite charges attract each other, while similar charges repel each other. This flow of electrons through the wire is an electric current, and it produces a magnetic field.

In a magnet, atoms are lined up so that the negatively charged electrons are all spinning in the same direction. Like an electric current, the movement of the electrons creates a magnetic force. The area around the magnet where the force is active is called a magnetic field. Metal objects and other magnets that enter this field will be pulled toward the magnet.

The way the atoms are lined up creates two different poles in the magnet, a north pole and a south pole. As with electrical charges, opposite poles attract each other, while like poles repel each other.

Learn about electromagnetism and its many uses here.

Now let's watch it work as we build a motor.
