8. Practice Question 4
A child is pulling a sled across a stretch of level ice. The rope makes an angle θ = 23° with the horizontal, the sled has a mass of 16 kg . If the sled is accelerating at a rate of m/s2, what is the magnitude of the force applied by the child?

11. Nuclear Energy: Fusion vs Fission
Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.

12. Isotopes
Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number. All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons in each atom.

13. Resistance in a Wire
To calculate the resistance R of a wire, we need to know three things: its length – the longer the wire, the greater its resistance. its cross-sectional area A – the greater the area, the less its resistance. the resistivity of the material r – the greater the resistivity, the greater its resistance.

14. Electrostatic Interactions
Static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge
