The above free body diagram represents the motion of a toy car across a floor from left to right. the weight of the .5 kg car is about 5 n and it is being pushed with 20 n of pressure. if there is 10 n of friction across the floor, what is the net force acting on the car?

a

since the car is moving to the right, the normal force is balancing the weight and the net force is 10 n, right.

b

friction and the normal force are acting opposite the applied force, so the net force is 5 n, right.

c

the net force is 35 n, the addition of each of the forces acting on the car and causing it to accelerate.

d

net force is equal to mass times acceleration so the net force is .5 kg times 9.8 m/s^2 or roughly 5 n.

Three different objects, all with different masses, are initially at rest at the bottom of a set of steps. each step is of uniform height . the mass of each object is a multiple of the base mass : object 1 has mass 4..00m , object 2 has mass 1..96m , and object 3 has mass . when the objects are at the bottom of the steps, define the total gravitational potential energy of the three-object system to be zero. if the objects are then relocated as shown, what is the new total potential energy of the system? each answer requires the numerical coefficient to an algebraic expression. each algebraic expression is given using some combination of the variables , , and , where is the acceleration due to gravity. enter only the numerical coefficient. (example: if the answer is 1..23mgd , just enter 1.23)

The experiment was repeated many years later but the gases were mixed in a different type of container. a white solid was obtained which was xenon fluoride. predict whether you think 1) krypton and 2) radon will react with fluorine. explain reasons for your predictions

Which statement correctly describes the current in a circuit that is made up of any two resistors connected in parallel with a battery? a. the current in the battery and in each resistor is the same b. the current the battery equals to the sum of the currents in the resistors c. the current in the battery is less than the current in either resistor d. the current in the battery equals to the product of the currents in the resistors
