1 answer:
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
= ?
The normal reaction N on the body = mg
N = 83 x 9.8
N = 813.4 N
The Frictional force formula is = μN
= 0.15 x 813.4
= 122.01 N
Therefore, the force of friction acting on him is 122 N approximately.

ANSWER
0s to 3s
EXPLANATION
To find the time interval where the object was traveling more quickly, we have to find the velocity of the object during each interval.
From a position-time graph, we can obtain the velocity of the object from the slope of the graph in each interval. To find those slopes, we just have to divide the vertical difference by the time interval.
The interval from 0s to 3s:
The interval from 3s to 5s and the interval from 7s to 8s have a horizontal line, so the slope is zero and therefore the velocity is zero - meaning that the object was not moving during these periods.
The interval from 5s to 7s,
And the interval from 8s to 12s,
Two of these three velocities are negative. Negative velocity indicates that the object is moving backward.
From these velocities, the greatest one, in absolute value, is the one between 0s to 3s. During this interval, the object is moving backward but at the greatest velocity.
