If a boy weighs 490 N and stands on a flat rough surface with a
OleMash [197]

The force of static friction acting on the boy is 333 Newtons.

Hence, option (d) 333N is the correct answer.

Given the data in the question;

  • Weight of boy; F_n = 490N
  • Coefficient of static friction; u_s = 0.68

Force of static friction acting on the boy; F_s = \ ?

<h3>Friction</h3>

Friction is simply referred as the resistance an object experience when moving or trying to move over another object. It can either by dynamic or static.

Static friction is the resistance experienced by a body at rest.

Coefficient of friction is the measure of how easily a body moves in relation to the other.

Static friction is expressed as;

F_s = u_s * F_n

Where F_s is the normal force and u_s is the coefficient of static friction.

We substitute our given values into the equation above

F_s = u_s * F_n\\\\F_s = 0.68 * 490N\\\\F_s = 333.2N\\\\F_s = 333N

The force of static friction acting on the boy is 333 Newtons.

Hence, option (d) 333N is the correct answer.

kaheart [24]

Electric field lines are a pictorial way to represent the electric field of a charge which basically indicates the field's strength.

The electric field is strong when the lines are close together and weak when they are far away from each other.

The greater the strength of the charge, the greater will be the number of field lines.

Hence, electric field lines provide a picture of an electric field indicating a field’s strength.

The correct option is Electric field lines

If a hiker that weighs 600 newtons climbs a 50 meter hill, how much gravitational potential energy has the hiker gained?
Illusion [34]

The gravitational potential energy U is defined as the product of mass m, the acceleration of gravity g and the height of object h.

U = mgh

We do not have the mass of the hiker. But we know that its W weight is:

W = mg

Where

g = 9.8 m/s^2

So:

m = \frac{W}{g}\\\\m = \frac{600}{g}.

So:

U = (\frac{600}{g})gh\\\\U = (600N)(50m)

U = 30000J

The hiker has gained 30,000 J of energy
