Calculate the maximum acceleration of a car that is heading up a 4º slope (one that makes an angle of 4º with the horizontal) under the following road conditions. assume that only half the weight of the car is supported by the two drive wheels and that the coefficient of static friction is involved—that is, the tires are not allowed to slip during the acceleration. (ignore rolling.)
(a) on dry concrete.
(b) on wet concrete.
(c) on ice, assuming that μs = 0.100 , the same as for shoes on ice.

Two thin 80.0- cm rods are oriented at right angles to each other. each rod has one end at the origin of the coordinates, and one of them extends along the x- axis while the other extends along the yaxis. the rod along the x- axis carries a charge of - 15.0 μ c distributed uniformly along its length, and the other rod carries 15.0 μ c uniformly over its length. find the magnitude and direction of the net electrical force that these two rods exert on an electron located at the point (40.0 cm, 40.0 cm). (e

Cells in the nervous system have a potential difference of 70 mv across the cell membrane separating the interior of the cell from the extracellular fluid. this potential difference is maintained by ion pumps that move charged ions across the membrane. is this an emf? select the correct answer and explanation. 1)no. the ion pumps cannot separate charges; thus, they cannot create a potential difference. 2)yes. the ion pumps cannot separate charges, but they still can create a potential difference. 3)yes. the ion pumps can actively separate charge; thus, they can create a potential difference. 4)no. the ion pumps can separate charges, but they cannot create a potential difference.

Ahuge (essentially infinite) horizontal nonconducting sheet 10.0 cm thick has charge uniformly spread over both faces. the upper face carries +95.0 nc/m2 while the lower face carries -25.0 nc/ m2. what is the magnitude of the electric field at a point within the sheet 2.00 cm below the upper face? (ε0 = 8.85 × 10-12 c2/n · m2)
