The force of friction acting on him is 122 N. The correct answer is option C

<h3>What is Friction ?</h3>

Friction is a force that opposes the motion of a static or a moving object.

Given that Barry slides across an icy pond. The coefficient of kinetic friction between his shoes and the ice is 0.15. If his mass is 83 kg

The given parameters are;

  • Mass m = 83 kg
  • Coefficient of kinetic friction μ = 0.15
  • Frictional force F_{r} = ?

The normal reaction N on the body = mg

N = 83 x 9.8

N = 813.4 N

The Frictional force formula is  F_{r} = μN

F_{r} = 0.15 x 813.4

F_{r} = 122.01 N

Therefore, the force of friction acting on him is 122 N approximately.

A manometer is used to measure the air pressure in a tank. the fluid used has a specific gravity of 1.25, and the differential h
BartSMP [9]
Specific Gravity of the fluid = 1.25 
Height h = 28 in
 Atmospheric Pressure = 12.7 psia
 Density of water = 62.4 lbm/ft^3 at 32F
 Density of the Fluid = Specific Gravity of the fluid x Density of water = 1.25 x 62.4
 Density of the Fluid p = 78 lbm/ft^3
 Difference in pressure as we got the differential height, dP = p x g x h  dP = (78 lbm/ft^3) x (32.174 ft/s^2) x (28/12 ft) [ 1 lbf / 32.174 ft/s^2] [1 ft^2 /
144in^2]
 Difference in pressure = 1.26 psia
 (a) Pressure in the arm that is at Higher 
 P = Atmospheric Pressure - Pressure difference = 12.7 - 1.26 = 11.44 psia
 (b) Pressure in the tank that is at Lower
 P = Atmospheric Pressure + Pressure difference = 12.7 + 1.26 = 13.96psia

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Very sorry if this is late

Explanation:

Currently, in Olympia, Washington, it is raining because a cold front with high pressure has met an area with low pressure. This occurs due to the fact that storms are caused by sudden differences in air pressure.

Explain why engineers leave a gap in a concrete bridge (answer must relate to density)
seraphim [82]
<span>Different materials expand and contract at different rates based on temperature. Just like if you leave a plastic bottle full of water in a freezer it will burst, but if you leave it partially full no problem.....Ok?Expansion joints do the same for bridges. There is a gap to allow for temperature related expansions and contractions. Sometimes you drive over bridges and roadways where this movement is constricted and you might notice a bumpy ride. Engineers can predict the variation of structural length based on span lengths and leave the necessary gaps.....btw, NICE QUESTION:)</span>
