Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.

Question

**Transcription for Educational Website**

A contestant in a winter sporting event pushes a 32.0 kg block of ice across a frozen lake as shown below. (Enter the magnitudes. Assume that friction is not negligible.)

*Image Description:* The diagram shows a person pushing a block of ice. The force exerted by the person is labeled as \( \vec{F} \), and it is applied at an angle of 25° below the horizontal.

**(a)** Calculate the minimum force \( \vec{F} \) (in N) he must exert to get the block moving.

\[ \text{______ N} \]

**(b)** What is its acceleration (in m/s\(^2\)) once it starts to move, if that force is maintained?

\[ \text{______ m/s}^2 \]

---

**Explanation for Educators:**

- The problem involves understanding the components of force applied at an angle and the effects of friction on motion.
- Calculations would typically involve decomposing the force into horizontal and vertical components and using Newton’s laws of motion.

A small boat is being pushed up a ramp into the back of a flatbed truck. The boat is sitting at the top of the ramp, which is located 1.4 m above the ground. The boaters think the boat is safe there, and begin to walkaway. However, they have neglected the thin layer of ice that has formed on the ramp, which is angled at 30◦ up from the ground. Neglecting the friction between the boat and the ramp, how long do the boaters havebefore the boat reaches the bottom of the ramp?
