The mass of the box is 8.5 kg.

<h3>What is mass?</h3>

Mass can be defined as the quantity of matter contained in a body.

To calculate the mass of the box, we use the formula

Formula:

  • F = mgμ............. Equation 1

Where:

  • F = Force
  • m = mass of the box
  • g = acceleration due to gravity
  • μ = coefficient of friction

Make m the subject of the equation

  • m = F/gμ..................... Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • F = 25 N
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • μ = 0.3

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • m = 25/(0.3×9.8)
  • m = 25/2.94
  • m = 8.5 kg

Hence, the mass of the box is 8.5 kg.

What type of energy is related to kinetic energy of all the particles in a sample of matter
pshichka [43]
The kinetic molecular theory of matter offers a description of the microscopic properties of atoms (or molecules) and their interactions, leading to observable macroscopic properties (such as pressure, volume, temperature). An application of the theory is that it helps to explain why matter exists in different phases (solid, liquid, and gas) and how matter can change from one phase to the next.

An electric clothes dryer draws 15 a of current from a 240-v wall outlet. how much power, in watts, does it use?
Nataly [62]
The power consumed by the electric clothes dryer may be calculated by the following equation,

    P = I x V

where P is the power, I is the current in amperes, and V is the voltage in volts. Substituting the known values from the given above,

  P = (15 A)(240 V)
  P = 3600 watts

Therefore, the power consumed by the electric clothes dryer is equal to 3600 watts.
