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.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

A) move into the left lane to pass the motorcycle

Explanation:

According to law, when it is needed to pass other vehicles, it requires you to only pass other vehicles on the left (using the left lane).

When passing a motorcyclist, remember to give him/her the same full lane width as other vehicles. Never drive in the same lane with a motorcyclist, even if the lane is wide enough to fit your vehicle and the motorcyclist.

A friend claims that throwing a baseball up towards the school roof illustrates gravitational potential energy transforming into

Cloud [144]

Answer:

The Statement is wrong because the reverse is the case as it is the kinetic energy that is being transformed to gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

As your friend throws the baseball into the air the ball gains an initial velocity (u) and this makes the Kinetic energy to be equal to

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mu^2$

Here m is the mass of the baseball

Now as this ball moves further upward the that velocity it gained reduce due to the gravitational force and this in turn reduces the kinetic energy of the ball and this kinetic energy lost is being converted to gravitational potential energy which is mathematically represented as (m×g×h)

as energy can not be destroyed but converted to a different form according to the first law of thermodynamics

Looking a the formula for gravitational potential energy we see that the higher the ball goes the grater the gravitational potential energy.
