Answer:
The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.
Explanation:
Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg
Frictional force = 30 N
thus

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics
The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.
Answer:
8.1 x 10^13 electrons passed through the accelerator over 1.8 hours.
Explanation:
The total charge accumulated in 1.8 hours will be:
Total Charge = I x t = (-2.0 nC/s)(1.8 hrs)(3600 s/ 1 hr)
Total Charge = - 12960 nC = - 12.96 x 10^(-6) C
Since, the charge on one electron is e = - 1.6 x 10^(-19) C
Therefore, no. of electrons will be:
No. of electrons = Total Charge/Charge on one electron
No. of electrons = [- 12.96 x 10^(-6) C]/[- 1.6 x 10^(-19) C]
<u>No. of electrons = 8.1 x 10^13 electrons</u>
Answer:
The cannonball and the ball will both take the same amount of time before they hit the ground.
Explanation:
For a ball fired horizontally from a given height, there is only a vertical acceleration on it towards the ground. This acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity (g = 9.81 m/s^2). A ball dropped from a height will also only experience the same vertical acceleration downwards which is also equal to g = 9.81 m/s^2.
Therefore both the cannonball and the ball will take the same amount of time to hit the ground if they are released/fired from the same height.
