3. Solve for frictional force in part A and the net force in Part B . Write your final answers for parts A and B rounded to 3 significant digits.
a. A 2.14 kg block is sliding along a rough horizontal surface, and the only unbalanced force acting on the block is a constant frictional force. Suppose the block is moving at speed 88.8 m/s at t = 0, and after 38.9 seconds it comes to rest. Find the magnitude of the frictional force, in Newtons, between the block and the tabletop.
b. A box of mass 40.6 g accelerates from velocity +57.2 m/s to velocity +60.6 m/s as it moves distance 85.9 m. Find the net force Fnet, in Newtons, acting on the box. The direction of the force is given by the sign of the answer.

Part 2) In the figure a small, nonconducting ball of mass m = 1.1 mg and charge q = 1.5 × 10-8 C (distributed uniformly through its volume) hangs from an insulating thread that makes an angle θ = 35° with a vertical, uniformly charged nonconducting sheet (shown in cross section). Considering the gravitational force on the ball and assuming the sheet extends far vertically and into and out of the page, calculate the surface charge density σ of the sheet.

Quantum computing / Chapter 9 - Deutsch-josza algorithm : "Suppose that f (00) = f (01) = 0, f (10)= f (11) = 1. Apply the Deutsch-Josza algorithm and show that at least one of the first two qubits ends up as a 1." I found this at Quantum Computing Explained by David McMahon Example 9.3 and i wasn't able to understand how he used Uf to get his third solution. I understand the reason behind applying the Hadamard gate. Help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
