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.

Starting from rest, a 6.79 kg block slides 2.82 m down a rough 20.7 ◦ incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the b

Veronika [31]

Answer:

23.52092 J

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 6.79 kg

s = Sliding distance = 2.82 m

$\theta$ = Angle of slide = 20.7°

$\mu$ = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.425

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Work done by the force of gravity is given by

$W=mgsin\theta\\\Rightarrow W=6.79\times 9.8\times sin20.7\\\Rightarrow W=23.52092\ J$

The work done by the force of gravity is 23.52092 J

A 10 kg cart is rolling across a parking lot with a velocity of .5 m/s. What is its momentum?

-Dominant- [34]

Hello!

$\large\boxed{p = 5 \text{ } kgm/s}$

Use the equation for momentum:

$p = mv$

Plug in the given mass and velocity into the equation:

$p = 10 * 0.5$

$p = 5 kgm/ s$

552000 in scientific notation

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

5.52 × 10 to the 5th power (100000) . In scientific notation you need to have a decimal numver times 10 to the power of something so you can divide 552000 by 10 5 times. So in order to get 552000 you need to have 10 to the 4th power and 5.52

The time T in seconds for a pendulum of length L feet to make one swing is given by Upper T=2\pi \sqrt((L)/(36)). How long is a

Andreyy89

Answer:

3.6ft

Explanation:

Using= 2*π*sqrt(L/32)

To solve for L, first move 2*n over:

T/(2*π) = sqrt(L/32)

Next,eliminate the square root by squaring both sides

(T/(2*π))2 = L/32

T2/(4π2) = L/32

Lastly, multiply both sides by 32 to yield:

32T2/(4π2) = L

and simplify:

8T²/π²= L

Hence, L(T) = 8T²/π²

But T = 2.1

Pi= 3.14

8(2.1)²/3.14²

35.28/9.85

= 3.6feet

yarga [219]

Answer:

the electric field strength on the second one is 2.67 N/C.

Explanation:

the electric fiel on the first one is:

E1 = k×q/(r^2)

r^2 = k×q/(E1)

= (9×10^9)×(q)/(24.0)

= 375000000q

then the electric field on the second one is:

E2 = k×q/(R^2)

we know that R = 3r

R^2 = 9×r^2

E2 = k×q/(9×r^2)

= k×q/(9×375000000q)

= k/(9×375000000)

= (9×10^9)/(9×375000000)

= 2.67 N/C

Therefore, the electric field strength on the second one is 2.67 N/C.
