Finding acceleration using FORCE equations
So you don't consider Fg at all ? :S Hmm...what if Fg and Fn are equal...and Fn is 24cos40? I'm really confused :(- helpme2011

Finding acceleration using FORCE equations
Homework Statement A 12 kg box is pushed along a horizontal surface by a 24N force at 40 degrees. The frictional force (kinetic) acting on the object is 6 N. What is the acceleration of the object?Homework Equations Ff= uFn Fn= Fg + Ft ??The Attempt at a Solution My Fn = 136 N Ff = 16.3 N ma=...- helpme2011

Using a Microwave Oven to Measure the Speed of Light
For this lab, I'm supposed to use materials that heat up but doesn't allow heat to transfer. I've used raw spaghetti noodles already but I still a few more for more trials. So what materials are good for this lab? after heating up the material, I measure the distance between the "hot spots" so...- helpme2011

What Are Neutrino Oscillations and Why Do They Matter in Particle Physics?
I need to choose a topic from any theories from quantum physics and write an essay about 500-1000 words and present it to the class. Because this assignment is for summer school, my teacher doesn't want it to be too complicated but at the same time interesting enough for a 10 minute...- helpme2011

Electromagnet investigation lab assignment
Oh..I just googled it :S but does it have a charge of 3.2 x 10^-19 Coulombs? so would that just be my Q and plug that into the equation of F= QvB?- helpme2011
