The forces acting on your mom while cooking is Air resistance and the force of friction

Explanation:

1. Air resistance:

In simple words, Air resistance can be stated as the type of friction between the air and the other materials.
In this scenario, there will be an air resistance and the air hits the mom while cooking via the doors or windows

2. The force of friction:

In simple words, friction can be stated as, the resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another.
While cooking the food mom would experience the friction since friction is the transfer of heat, and cooking is the process of receiving that heat.

When your mom is making lunch, the forces acting on your mom are gravity and normal force.

Explanation:

Gravity is the force exerted by earth on objects.The force of gravity is equal to the weight of the object. Movements or immobile positions on earth, all involves gravity and it is the gravitational force that enables you to stand still.Gravity is exerted in the downward direction.

Normal force acts on the upward direction opposite to the direction of gravity.When your mom is making lunch,gravity acts on her in the downward direction while an equal normal force acts in the upward direction.The gravity and normal force are balanced forces here.

A 1700kg rhino charges at a speed of 50.0km/h. what average force is needed to bring the rhino to a stop in 0.50s?

uranmaximum [27]

From 50km/h to 0km/h in 0.5s we need next acceleration:
First we convert km/h in m/s:
50km/h = 50*1000/3600=13.8888 m/s
a = v/t = 13.88888/0.5 = 27.77777 m/s^2

Now we use Newton's law:

F=m*a

F=1700*27.7777 = 47222N

An electric field from a charge has a magnitude of 1.5 × 104 N/C at a certain location that points inward. If another charge wit

zysi [14]

Answer:

-0.045 N, they will attract each other

Explanation:

The strength of the electrostatic force exerted on a charge is given by

$F=qE$

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

E is the electric field magnitude

In this problem,

$q=3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C$

$E=-1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C$ (negative because inward)

So the strength of the electrostatic force is

$F=(-3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(1.5\cdot 10^4 N/C)=-0.045 N$

Moreover, the charge will be attracted towards the source of the electric field. In fact, the text says that the electric field points inward: this means that the source charge is negative, so the other charge (which is positive) is attracted towards it.

What is the repulsive force between two pith balls that are 8.00 cm apart and have equal charges of −25.0 nc? g?

Daniel [21]

To calculate the force between two negative charges, we use the formula which is given by the Coulomb`s Law as

$F=\frac{kq_{1}q_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Here, $q_{1}$ and $q_{2}$ are the charges on the pith balls, r is the separation between the charges and k is constant and its value is $8.99\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2$ .

Given $q_{1} =q_{2} =-25 nC=-25\times 10^{-9}C$ and $r=8 cm=8\times10^{-2} m$ .

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

$F= 8.99\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\frac{(-25\times 10^{-9}C)(-25\times 10^{-9}C)}{(8\times10^{-2} m)^2} \\\\\ F= 877929.7\times 10^{-9} N\\\\F=8.8\times10^{-4}N$

Thus, the repulsive force between two pith balls is $8.8\times10^{-4}N$ .
