The horizontal component of the force acting on the crate is

Two identical stationary bar magnets are arranged as shown in the diagram below.
What is the direction of the magnetic field at point P?

The diagram below represents a light ray reflecting from a plane mirror.
The angle of reflection for this light ray is

The diagram below represents a standing wave produced in a string by a vibrating wave generator.
How many antinodes are shown in this standing wave?

A particle enters the electric field between two oppositely charged parallel plates, as represented in the diagram below.
Which particle will be deflected toward the positive plate as it enters the electric field?

The graph below represents the relationship between velocity and time for an object moving along a straight line.
What is the magnitude of the object’s acceleration?

The diagram below represents a 2.0-kilogram toy car moving at a constant speed of 3.0 meters per second counterclockwise in a circular path with a radius of 2.0 meters.
At the instant shown in the diagram, the centripetal force acting on the car is

In the diagram below, a negatively charged rod is placed between, but does not touch, identical small metal spheres R and S hanging from insulating threads.
What can be concluded if the rod repels sphere R but attracts sphere S?

Two pulses approach each other in a uniform medium, as represented in the diagram below.
Which diagram best represents the superposition of the two pulses when the pulses overlap?

The graph below shows the relationship between distance, d, and time, t, for a moving object.
On the axes in the Show Your Work space, sketch the general shape of the graph that shows the relationship between the magnitude of the velocity, v, and time, t, for the moving object.

On the grid in the Show Your Work space, draw one complete cycle of the wave.
A wave traveling through a uniform medium has an amplitude of 0.20 meter, a wavelength of 0.40 meter, and a frequency of 10. hertz.

a) Mark an appropriate scale on the axis labeled “Current (A).”
b) Plot the data points for current versus potential difference.
c) Draw the line or curve of best fit.
