The magnitude of the force exerted by the left cube on the right cube is 17.64N.

<h3>What is frictional force?</h3>

When an object is moving on a rough surface, it experiences opposition. This opposing force is called the friction.

Two identical 3.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up from left to right and a force F₁ is applied to the left side of the left cube causing both cubes to move at a constant speed v. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the cubes and the surface is 0.3.

From the equilibrium of forces in vertical direction

Normal force N= 2m x g

friction force f = μN =μ(2m)g

From the equilibrium of forces in horizontal direction

F₁ =ma =0

using Newton's third law of motion, we get

F₁ - f =0

F₁ =f = μ(2m)g

Put the values, we get

F₁ = 17.64N

Thus, magnitude of the force exerted by the left cube on the right cube is 17.64N.

Consider a large tank holding 1000 L of pure water into which a brine solution of salt begins to owat a constant rate of 6L/min.

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

T = 693.147 minutes

Explanation:

The tank is being continuously stirred. So let the salt concentration of the tank at some time t be x in units of kg/L.

Therefore, the total salt in the tank at time t = 1000x kg

Brine water flows into the tank at a rate of 6 L/min which has a concentration of 0.1 kg/L

Hence, the amount of salt that is added to the tank per minute = $(6\times0.1)kg/min=0.6kg/min$

Also, there is a continuous outflow from the tank at a rate of 6 L/min.

Hence, amount of salt subtracted from the tank per minute = 6x kg/min

Now, the rate of change of salt concentration in the tank = $\frac{dx}{dt}$

So, the rate of change of salt in the tank can be given by the following equation,

$1000\frac{dx}{dt} =0.6-6x$

or, $\int\limits^{0.05}_0 {\frac{1000}{0.6-6x} } \, dx =\int\limits^T_0 {} \, dt$

or, T = 693.147 min (time taken for the tank to reach a salt concentration

of 0.05 kg/L)

How is a scientific theory different from a scientific law?

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Scientific theory is a well-supported explanation of an occurrence of a natural phenomenon. Scientific law is a description of a natural phenomenon that is always observed to occur under specific circumstances.
