If you are pushing a box toward your friend with a force of 20 N, and your friend is pushing the box toward you with a force of 30 N, what will happen to the box?

The electric field between square plates of a parallel-plate capacitor has magnitude e. the potential across the plates is maintained with constant voltage by a battery as they are pulled apart to twice their original separation, which is small compared to the dimensions of the plates. the magnitude of the electric field between the plates is now equal to a)e b)e/4 c)e/2 d)4e e)2e

Consider a 1000 w iron whose base plate is made of 0.5 cm thick aluminum alloy 2024-t6 (ρ = 2770 kg/m3 and cp = 875 j/kg°c). the base plate has a surface area of 0.03 m2. initially, the iron is in thermal equilibrium with the ambient air at 22°c. assuming 90% of the heat generated in the resistance wires is transferred to the plate, determine the minimum time needed for the plate temperature to reach 200°c.

A1-lb collar is attached to a spring and slides without friction along a circular rod in a vertical plane. the spring has an undeformed length of 5 in. and a constant k =25 lb/ft. knowing that the collar is released from being held at a determine, the speed of the collar and the normal force between the collar and the rod as the collar passes through b.
