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.

Jupiter’s Great Red Spot rotates completely every six days. If the spot is circular (not quite true, but a reasonable approximat
artcher [175]

Answer:

v = 567.2 km/h

Explanation:

As we know that if Jupiter Rotate one complete rotation then it means that the it will turn by 360 degree angle

so here the distance covered by the point on its surface in one complete rotation is given by

distance = 2\pi r

distance = \pi D

now we will have the time to complete the rotation given as

t = 6 days

t = 6 (24 h) = 144 h

now the speed is given by

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

speed = \frac{\pi D}{t}

speed = \frac{\pi(26000 km)}{144}

v = 567.2 km/h

"A 78-year-old woman has a mean arterial pressure of 120 mm Hg and a heart rate of 60 beats/min. She has a stroke volume of 50 m
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

0.04 mm Hg / mL / min .

Explanation:

Arterial pressure = 120 mm Hg

right atrial pressure = 0 mm Hg

Drop in pressure due to peripheral resistance = 120 mm Hg

volume of cardiac output per minute = 3000 mL/min

total  peripheral resistance

= 120 / 3000 mm Hg / mL / min

= 0.04 mm Hg / mL / min .

When the electron in a hydrogen atom moves from n = 6 to n = 1, light with a wavelength of ________ nm is emitted?
Oduvanchick [21]
First we find the energy level with the following formula, where a is the energy level, n1 is the final energy level, n2 is the starting energy level and r is Rydberg's constant in Joules
a = r \times ( \frac{1}{n1}  -  \frac{1}{n2} )
We insert the values

a = 2.18 \times  {10}^{ - 18}  \times ( \frac{1}{ {1}^{2} } -  \frac{1}{ {6}^{2} }  )
= 2.12 \times {10}^{ - 18}
The wavelength is found with this formula, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light
wavelength =  \frac{h \times c}{a}
Finally we insert the values
\frac{6.626 \times  {10}^{ - 34}  \times 3 \times  {10}^{8} }{2.12 \times  {10}^{ - 18} }  = 9.376 \times  {10}^{ - 8}
Which is the same as 93.8 nm
